Hey Lanse

[fixerupper]

How goes it with the Allis? I've lost track of things the past week or so and sitting here long enough to archive is a little too much yet, so I thought I'd ask you in person. Jim

thats allright Fixerupper, you got a good excuse!! In the last week or 2, ive pulled the head, and taken the ATF out (although im sure it wouldve worked) and gotten paint. Ive taken off sevral small parts and removed the rust, and gotten ready to prime and paint. The carb is still soaking and i got the wrong kit for it, so that'll have to wait a few days to come in. I also made a seat for it, and gotten to work to the sheet metal. Also, i got the oil pan off. Whew, i know im forgetting a thing or 2, oh well, LOL

Does that B have a name yet? Have you decided on a gender? Two of our tractors are male, and three are female.

I think I remember from your pics that you B is on three legs right now? That probably makes it a little dicey to rock back and forth...

Well, i know its a she, my dad named her nancy, but i doubt that'll stay......
Yeah, but the rimless wheel is up on a block, so she's level. You know anyone in the area with a rear rim for one of these things???

 

[hillbillyOH]

I have a couple of good front rims if you need one, but I don't know of any good rear rims. Steinke's might be able to help you with the rears.

When are we going to see a picture of those cylinders?!?

Wow! you've been busy. Speaking of oil pans, is an Allis pan thin as paper like an Olie! The pan for my Oliver was pin-holed through and the used one I replaced it with was too. Didn't know about it until it was cleaned up shiny. Jim

I sent you an e-mail
