Another potential implement restoration---this old 4 row Allis Chalmers planter has been sitting for who knows how many years. It sits on our hunting lease which we have had for 20 years. The old farmers son says he doesn't care if we reclaim it, so it is ours for free. My question is whether it is worth the effort. I need better pictures, but this is all I have now. I thought about removing one of the planter units and inspecting it more closely. And if I do restore it, I would probably make it a 2 or 3 row. I know nothing about planters, but it obviously is pretty rusted up, but the hoppers would be pretty simple to repair or replace, it seems. What should I do and what should I expect??
