What would a realistic price be for a TW since only 87 were made? Wonder if he has the trailer for it?

As far as we know, no trailer exists. And the tractor may be the only one left.

it may be worth a pretty penny but i doubt it would sell for anything close to that.. i would say the market for that is miniscule compared to something like a Hemi Cuda, and they dont bring that much.
it would sure be neat for someone to fix up though, there is an AC wagon out there somewhere even if it wasnt the one designed to fit the TW it could be modified for show or if a CAT wagon was hooked to it, it would be more complete? if that is the right word.

Do you all think some AC collector has deep enough pockets and enough lust for such a tractor at that price?

Enlighten the uneducated among us... is that the tractor that Allis Chalmers used to promote rubber tires by having a driver scoot along at a pretty good speed?

wjohn your thinking of the U. The TW was designed to pull large dumpwagons before the advent of self propelled scrapers, for use with elevating graders pulled by crawlers. right? or large shovels i suppose also

Maybe they will sell it for scrap price or $100,000, which ever comes first. I for one, would want a starter on it. That crank handle looks deadly. I wonder how long it has been owned by the same guy. Funny it would ever come up for sale.

Hello Unit3 Before we repaired the intake leak and before the model "A" had a starter it was crank start, mostly pull start, but there were several DUMB moments when I would crank start it "spin it over til it started". Now that old age and the dumb things have caught up with me, I am starting to act my age. NEVER lol

If I was going to pay $100,000 or even $10,000, I will run and its matching tires will hold air.

Too bad Allis didn't make that out of a model L crawler. What a beast it would be.

I did not know this was a crawler made into a tractor. This is more of a bump than anything. I just like to look at it.
