My two neighbors are both selling this one. Couple of weeks ago this little toy showed up on a roll back. Is this an Allis Chalmers AC? Well it runs and everything works. Has a PTO and the belt drive pulley too. Super traction VW stud snow tires with white walls. Super comfy seat cousion with the optional water proof seat cover. Also has a single bottom plow. Wheel drive gear is not broken. Now for the engine. Oil change and filter, even has an oil pressure gauge .Super high tech ignition system with extra long wires for sure starts. Now don't forget that optional hybrid drive distributor system with optional adjustable coil bracket. All of this for the low low price of only $950.oo FOB. {just when you think you have seen it all} Ha ha

looks more like a B to me....

Probably not a bad price. Can't figure out the magneto, and coil arrangement. Stan

magneto has been converted to a dist. using points/cond. to trigger that bat. fed coil.

The need to get that coil upright, so the juice doesn't drain out of it. . .

The back tires are probably worth that...

Yup, coil in the magneto went bad, so someone "farmer fixed" it by bypassing the magneto coil with a battery coil.

Really other than the seat cushion you're being awfully nit-picky. If it was rusty, non-running with 2 or 3 flat tires, I might tend to agree that $950 is out of line. But he's not that bad if it runs and drives.

Seat cushion is easy. Just get 3/4" plywood sized to fit in the brackets, a 3 or 4 inch thick of high density foam and cover with the fabric of your choice.

Best deal ona RARE Allis Chalmers B like that. Not many with front wheel assist dontchyaknow.

^D
Bunch of people have converted a magneto into a distributor. Hard to get even 800 around here for a good running B. Even with 400 dollars worth of tires. I still like them anyway.

worth about $400 if the engine is solid.
