Restored this tractor around 10 years ago. Engine, transmission, and rearend are all basically new on the inside. Turned out to be a bigger project then expected. Then when I loaded to take to the Gathering of the Orange in Jacksonville, IL a fan blade bent over and cut the center out of the radiator. It finally made it to a Gathering at the Little Log Cabin in MN.

Thanks for posting the picture. Many of the Allis picture you posted are of the Voris Farm collection. I was there helping them with the Black Painted Allis Model L Power Unit you can see in one picture about mid-row. They got a kick from the other picture you posted when I found them. I will tell them about this posting. They have resently aquired an Allis Cotton Picker based on a D-17. They may have it at Republic next year. I have always claimed they have more Allis Farm Equipment than Allis knew they built. The other deal is that many of these pieces of equipment still earn their keep. The D-21 is used to pull a bat wing hay rake during hay season. I live about seven miles from Dean Voris's Farm. His son, Jeff, is the Ag Teacher at the school where my wife is the book keeper. Jeff owns the WD45D. Jeff's Soils Team took first in Nationals last year.

I love those 45 diesels! The 230 diesels ran smooth and are neat to listen to.
You have a nice tractor there.
