| A 220 with front wheel assist. I would say it is one of the most wanted by all of us. Dream one I need is 170 gas narrow front in new condition. |

Sorry to say, but if I could only have one dream tractor, it would be a White 4-150. I was not only the project engineer for it, but it would take me back to my youth!! My wife was also very pregnant with our first child when the first one came off the production line. Many good memories. After that, comes an 8070 FWA with power shift and a 4W-305. A little more reasonable would be an IH Super C with the fast hitch. The first serious, all-day field work I did was cultivating with one. ------------- Mark B10 Allis, 917 Allis, 7116 Simplicity, 7790 Simplicity Diesel, GTH-L Simplicity Ignorance is curable-----stupidity is not. |

Here's the 30-60. I did a lot of work on that before my accident. I think the engine will be back together this fall. It was driven in the shop but the boss had us start fixin' things and 1 thing lead to another. It was eventually completely disassembled.  I think my friend Ron Miller might have one of the Rumley F's. He has 11 different models of Rumleys. I doubt either one of these could be bought though. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

In terms of AC. I would like to have a WC with a diesel engine in it because I love diesel engines and a diesel WC would probably be one of a kind. Now in terms of other tractors I would say an Oliver 1950 with the 4-53 Detroit.

my grandads 1953 john deere 40t, it came home the same week i did, and i grew up on it, the only complete restorration that i ever did to a tractor, i had it looking good with the cultivators and two row side dressers,
it was in the old barn here at home in the fall of 08, when the barn burnt, while i did not bawl, over its loss i did shed a tear when i saw it, all those memories of my grandfather teaching me to drive and work, are only in my memory now, up till then i had something tangible i could set on and know that he had spent many a day there also
before the final restoration in the tobacco patch

ky wonder,
I'm sorry for your loss. I have my Dads WD45 that is the tractor I learned to drive on, I also restored it for him. I would hate to see it burned.
Did you get to keep it? From the picture it looked like it could have been rebuilt again although it wouldn't be cheap.

Sorry for that loss, I know the feeling, if at all possible, whatever you do, don't let her go!
You may yet have a chance to put her back together, and think of that story, and the smiles that come with it.
I have a second change to fix up a tractor my great grandfather sold new at his dealership, I won't let it go again. I dought I would ever have that chance again, since Allis is all but dead in our area, and all the tractors he sold, are scattered, or melted, or in a fence row, I don't know about. ------------- Still in use: HD7 WC C CA WD 2-WD45 WD45LP WD45D D14 3-D17 D17LP 2-D19D D19LP 190XTD 190XTLP 720 D21 220 7020 7030 7040 7045 3-7060 Projects: 3-U UC 2-G 2-B 2-C CA 7-WC RC WDLP WF D14 D21 210 7045 N7 |

i pickeled the tractor after the fire with all intentions of someday trying to restore it, but after 8 months of watching it, i finally sold it to get the heartbreaking sight off the place, i know that i had just overhauled it and bored it out 100,000ths, and but it back together with mailto:m@w - m@w pistons and it would run with a set of 2x14s hooked to it.
i have seen other 40's that where in just as nice condition that i could have bought reasonbaly, but they where not that tractor, grandaddy above all was a realist, so i know he would understand, for the last parts of his life the tractor was only used to plow tobacco and power elevators
but i do miss it, its kinda like my wife i would not take anything for her, but would not give a dime for a truck load just like her. ------------- i like old tractors of all colors |
