Thread: Unique old AC 45 and another old JD A

Tweet

I know some of you really enjoy old tractors so I thought I would share it with you. My aunt is getting the big d and it isn't in Dallas () and is selling off everything they had. My cousin told me he was cleaning the yard up and I knew they had a really good running John Deere A. When I called my aunt to talk to her about it, she said they also had a weird Allis Chalmers fork lift thing. That peaked my interest.

I went over there today and sure enough. They have what I think is an Allis Chalmers WD rear loader tractor. I personally never have seen one. At first I figured it was just a farmer converted deal. But the more I looked at it, the more manufactured pieces I saw. Supposedly the guy they got it from said there were only 4 or 5 in Iowa and they all came from 1 dealer. My Dad is buying it to use on his place while his skid loader is broken. I'll buy it later to repaint with one of the kids for a 4H project. It fires right up, doesn't smoke and will lift a large round bale but some additional weight needs added to the rear to keep it down.
