We know that it is an Allis Chambers D10. The best we can figure, based on the ser# is that it was built in 1962. I bought in back in 96-97. We used it to cut pasture grass and clear underbrush in the woods on our last place. We have since moved to a bigger place and gotten a bigger tractor. It has not been used much in the last three years. I do drive it occasionally to keep it in running order. I have a complete operator�s manual, service manual, parts manual and most the old parts that were removed, plus a few extra items.The wiring and gauges have all been replaced and an hour meter was added. The key switch has been converted to an ON/OFF switch with a START switch. The engine cranks up and starts very easily and runs smoothly (slight putter when points are off).
The muffler was changed to an �under the hood� style to get more clearance in the woods. The radiator and w/pump are in great condition, temp stays around 180�f.
The clutch was replaced in 98 during a repair to the hydraulic pump drive. The transmission 1st-2nd-4th are solid, 3rd has a rattle.
The generator charges fine when engine is above idle.
The 3-point hitch needs new bearing caps, I have the replacements.
The hydraulics works fine; the dual function valve and the lift cylinders have a slight leak. I am willing to consider any price at this point, although I do have a bottom price. I tried to sell it for $3000 last year but did not get any takers, not sure what the fair price would be. I am also willing to barter for any other items: cars, trucks, ATV�s, campers, boats, tools, mowers, just about anything. 360' pictures available via e-mail. The engine does have a problem with burning up points at times. Paul Musselman
