Allis C Value

[Soundguy]

That is the sad reality of it all Soundguy. We have an AC C that has been sitting in our shed for a long time. The engine stoped oiling, so we parked it. I just haven't had the extra time and money to put into a tractor that doesn't serve much purpose around the farm and wouldn't be worth the expense of a rebuild alone. It would be neat to have it working again though....

P.S. $350 for a paint job is definitely slave labor too!

ditto what the other poster said about oiling. there is a good article ont he net about making a new tube. you essentially cut a piece of copper tube or brake line.. do a lil crimp and solder and drilling.

also.. some oil fitlers that cross to a c159 are not correct as they do not hav e the floss media in them.. and on occasion.. the tube comes off in the filter!

as for a 350$ slave labor paint job.. I was just counting materials alone

On the other hand, the next row over was a JD, 16" 2-way plow. Points and shares had been welded up, and so long ago, the welds were rusty. In fact, the whole plow was rusty. Pics below... I was hoping to pick it up for in the neighborhood of $100.00 for a play thing, for plowing days...

An older fellow, who looked to be in his 70's, paid $625.00 for it..!!

I bought a nice dearborn 2 bottom ( 10-1 ) with roling lanside and coulters all intact for 205$ at auction...
