I have located what I think is an Allis Chalmer C.

I don't know for sure since I have never delt at all with AC tractors. It appears to be in good shape. I don't see any cracks in the head, the sheet metal is all in nice condition, with only the battery box being eaten away. One rear tire is shot, the others still hold air.

It is hooked to a shreader which is what I was originally interested in.

What should I offer for the tractor and or shreader? Any ideas?

Thanks everyone.

According to some of the folks on this site, there isn't a tractor in the world worth more than $200 to $250. In fact, the Allis model C is a very popular tractor for the yuppies who are buying the five acre tracts and wanting to play farmer. The little tractors bring $2500 to $3500 with a belly mower. (I know because my brother sold his to the first guy who looked at it for $3500). Depending on the condition of the tractor, you should be able to get a good price for the little tractor, particularly if it is running.

Cracks in head and the block are rarely visible from the outside. Check the drain plug for the pan. If antifreeze comes out before the oil, something is wrong with the head, block or gaskets.

If it doesn't run, the value is low - maybe $100 to $250. A fellow near me gave me his C that didn't run (cost me $150 to get it going). By the time I'm done with the rebuild, I expect to have $500 to $600 in a tractor that usually sells from $1000 to $1500 in good shape. Time to fix up - about 200 hours.

The shredder is worth between $100 and $250 depending on condition (around here).

I think Old's advice is good. Might be $300 or $400 worth of equipment.

I'd guess around $500 for the 2. I'd offer $300 first and see where he goes. But I do like to talk price out when I can. Once you have the tractor up and running good with good tires the tractor is worth around $1000-1500

it depends on if it runs,is it stuck and as a wise man,by the handle camboted, once told me, LOCATION,LOCATION,LOCATION. shipping is costly. i just purchased one 12mi. down the road. it runs,has no starter,and the rear tires are like new,good tin. he wanted 600 and i gave him 500. that price is up here in mi were we like paying high taxes and everything else. has pulley and hyd pump,and draw bar to,means a little more. but, if you think about it,were can you get a portable power to run a gen, pump,plow,mow,push snow,give hay rides,ride fist class in parades, and best of all the challenge. and very important the great people that respond to your questions.now for 200-500,for something that needs a little spit and polish is well worth it. cheap entertainment gary
