Hi Chuck
Does Harold know about this deal. Great tractor Steve. We have had one restored since 1995. Father purchased a new WF in 1945 to operate his new 1945 AllCrop with the bagger attachment.

Haven't you guys learned by now? I don't buy a Tractor unless it comes with a ladder! Rope style, wood, or fiberglass. Doesn't matter. I always have to drill new holes in the seat mounting to so I can reach the pedals. I used to attach blocks of wood with a hose clamp or two to the pedals so I could reach em', but I just move the seat forward a couple feet and I'm good to go!! Chuck & Calvin included that tall ladder in case I needed to reach the hood to put oil in the engine. That oil filler tube is up there for me! My Pal Fred had to leave that ladder in the pic don't ya know. That just wouldn't be Fred if he didn't..... Thank you Chuck for the lift down, and a big Thank You again to Calvin for hookin' me up with my new toy. Hey TC! I'll take that grille shell that's on the wall! I'm gonna need it. The one that's on there seen better days.. LOL! Steve@B&B

Steve it's time to start searching the vendors for a new wireing harness, starter and generator. Maybe even a good rebuilt carb. If you search this site you'll find what you need and good luck. LOL

Steve, I will have you know that I wasn't a part of the ladder stunt, nor do I think it's funny. I just can't figure why Fred would throw me under the bus. I need to quit typing because the keyboard is getting wet from the tears of laughter.lol

I want to set the record straight about the ladder. The ladder was an option that was added after Chuck and Terri cleared US customs.

Luigi,
Been hearing that stuff since I was a kid! I can probably tell more short jokes or Italian jokes than anyone. LOL! Who else do you know that can change the oil under a snake?
Chuck- Glad to see you and Terri got home safe n' sound! Again, Thank you for the giving the WF a "lift" down. Now.. where's that Calvin? We gotta' square up!! It'll be JoAnna and I's turn to go visit the "Fredster" in a couple weeks. I have a G motor to deliver, and some AC golf clubs for the showroom. Hey Harv! Hotdogs? What happened to the steaks Fred was talking bout'?? He's slick boy. He mentioned steaks. He musta' been referring to "tube steaks"!! LMAO!!

Steve, That will be a great addition to your Allis Chalmers Fleet. Look forward to seeing pictures of progress. By the way I'm at the beach right now but let me know when you will be going to Fred's. If i'm home perhaps I could meyander up to Hanover PA to see you again and finally meet Fred. Good Luck! Bill Long Bill Long

Dave, I was near Portage le Prairie last week but didn't see your WF. They are having big spring floods and I did see some debris floating down the river. I'll be stopping to see Gilbert in late June so I can check it out for you now that I seem to be the WF guy.

Portage le prarrie? Where is dat? LOL! Calvin is the "official" WF dude now. Bill- JoAnna and I plan on taking a road trip to York, PA to take in the Streetrod Nationals East on Friday June 3rd. If the weather is going to wash out the weekend, we'll be coming out in the Van and we'll be hooking up with the Fredster. If the weather actually is decent, we'll just have the 29' and take in the show and hit Fred's at a later date. I'll keep ya posted on our plans. Would be great to see ya again my friend! Haven't seen ya in a while!!

Well Steve
I would appear that someone (who shall remain nameless) has an Uncle that has summoned me to the vicinity of an unscrupulous Allis chalmers collecter of NOS parts. I am currently trying to save up some pennies in order to catch the big bird and come visit my good buddies again. Im hoping to reclaim some missing property that cant be found since he left.

ROTFLMAO!!! Skip- by the time this thread is done, the only thing I'll have left of that WF if I'm lucky is the serial number! This thread is goin' down the toilet quick! lol!
