I found someone selling a 63 Allis Chalmers D12 Series 3, PS, 4-speed high and 4 speed low trans, Run Excellent, 3 point hitch. Loader w/snowplow 1600 orig hours.

Would this tractor fit my needs, I need a tractor to mow a 7 acre field and also rotortill (sp) a 1 acre garden. How available are parts for this tractor. What is the average asking price for this tractor. Any other + or - on this tractor would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance..What other kind of tractor would soot my needs...

I have a Series II D-12. The machine you're describing is the ultimate in D-12's. About the only things it doesn't have that you would get on a new machine are 4WD and a differential lock. It should have fully live PTO and hydraulics and remote hydraulics as standard. Power steering and the multi-range tranny are hard to find. The first gear on the regular 4-spd is probably slow enough for tilling; with the multi-range it should be great. Most mechanical parts are available from AGCO-Allis or aftermarket sources. Sheet metal and the like generally has to be fabricated or salvaged.

The Allis-Chalmers have excellent traction for a 2WD machine. I had a Ford 600 with a loader and the traction was poor, even with a lot of ballast on the rear. The D-12 does better with less ballast.

For mowing you would probably be best with a 5 ft. rotary cutter, maybe 6 ft. if a finish mower.

The machine you describe should easily be worth $5000, maybe more. I paid less for mine, but it doesn't have the PS, multi-range tranny or factory 3-point hitch and wasn't running well at all when I bought it.

This is a very good utility tractor. The 3pt hitch and hi-lo trans give this D12 more value than earlier models.The live pto makes roto-tilling and mowing a breeze. Engine parts are easy to find but sheet metal is tough and pricey. With a loader and attachments a guess would be $5,000-6,500.Check the serial # registry for prices paid for D12's.
