our relative had a 1939 B that I ran as a kid 50 years ago. He gave it away when he moved west in 1980. So I bought mine in 2015.

I was lucky enough to inherit a 1949 WD that my Dad bought new, and a 1951 WD that my Grandfather bought new. Dad bought his first because grandad wasn't convinced that tractors were better than horses. I guess the '49 changed his mind.
They were both purchased from my other Grandfathers dealership which makes them extra special for me.

I stiil have and use often a 1951 WD and I was there when the tractor was unloaded from the Morrison Implement Company truck! Bought by my father and grandfather, and then first used that night to drag 5 dead cows out of the alfalfa field, where they had died of bloat!

My brothers have our fathers D17 and 4 furrow plow purchased new from the local AC Dealer in 1957. The tractor is now retired on the seventh generation family farm in Eastern Ontario. I own our 185, purchased new in 1975, and it is retired as well, at our cottage, a few miles away from the farm. Both provided outstanding service to the farm and will remain part of the family.
Two of the best, of the many great models produced by Allis Chalmers

 I found a receipt where Dad got this WD NF in 1962. Since then it got worked over to what you see here. Dad passed in 89 but I got to hang onto it and it's in need of another going over.

Dad bought the 1952 WD I have in the very late 1960's or early 1970's prior to 1973. He has the bill of sale somewhere in his tax papers. He has all his tax papers and receipts going back to when he first started farming. He gave the WD to me in the middle 1980's. It was stuck from setting and he had robbed the distributor off it. I got it running sometime in the late 80's. First tractor I bought on my own I bought in early Spring 1987 just before I graduated from high school.... a 1961 D19 gas. It is still in my shed.
