Somebody can surely use this to restore and show with a WC or use for parts. These cultivators can not be that easy to find.

Alan I went right up 31 about 2 weeks ago. Wish I'd known back then I would have stopped in and grabbed them.

I want 'em, need 'em, can use 'em... and I THINK I have a way of getting 'em out of your hair. I've got a buddy not far from you who has some space in Bethlehem, and there's a crane there that I need to pick up sometime this summer... and he's affiliated with the Bangor engine group... d'ya know anyone in that bunch? They owe me a favor... so I might be able to get 'em to snag and drag the cultivator down to Beth... vive six thuree, 340 thirty fourteen.

Just sent a message to my buddy, he's got contacts in the Blue Mountain group over in Jacktown... if they can make something happen, I'll give it a good home... :-)

I wonder how many sets of cultivators go to china each and everyday? I'll bet the number is stagering. Problem is for alot of us , with the price of fuel you can't just take off for parts unknown anymore. I just went after a set for a CA Friday. Cost me 150.00 in gas and a days drive. They were real bad rusty and probably not worth 50 bucks in scrap. other problem I see with cultivators is most have been left in the weeds on the dirt for 50+ yrs and sadly aren't much good for anything or are missing many of the parts needed to make it all happen. Never bought or seen a CA that didn't have at least a few of the brackets left on them from when they were new. Hard, if not impossible. to find everything necessary to put a working set on a tractor. In fact I've never seen a working set on any CA yet that was the most popular job they did in their day.

I have a complete set that came with the CA. Not for sale, but I have seen them on the tractor many times.

CA cultivators are pretty common.

They haven't been on the tractor in 30 years, but all the parts are in the old barn. Larry put up a picture. Looks the same except mine is a narrow front.

If I only had a way to get them here to Oklahoma, I could put them on my RC. If only the VA would approve the rest of my disability, I would be able to have them shipped. Those would be a good addition to my restoration.

dave, i'll put your name on them....if you work it out, that's fine with me. i'm a member of the jacktown group but i don't know a huge amount of folks there....i just show up, pull, and that's about it...don't go meetings or anything....
todd- yes, i'm about 3/4 of a mile off of route 31, about a mile before it ends at route 46...
yes, that is a snowbucket in the background. it for the loader on one of my ca's.

Great! I just talked to Mike- he says he can make it happen, and would like to get in contact with you to figure out when a good time would be to meet up... he'll come out and take 'em over to his storage space at your mutual convenience...
Check your private messages- I'll send 'ya his phone number!
Thanks!!!

What I've found is pretty common to be lying on the dirt in the weeds for 40+yrs all rusted beyound recognition with key parts missing. I have never seen what you have pictured. I do have a couple sets in pretty nice overall condition though I hope to have on a tractor some day.

DANG, I would love to find a set of those one day for the unstyled WC. I believe the attachments are way harder to find than the tractors themself. Thank you Dave for saving a piece of Allis-Chalmers history.
