Robert,
When you had your Allis's, did you go to Darrin's site allischalmers.com?I used to lurk there and learned a ton about my D-12 from them "orange nuts".I still sometimes have regrets about selling her, wished I woulda kept and restored her.

Thomas,
The way you described starting was just like my ol D-12.She was 6 volt and would wah,waaaah,waaaaaaah,(sounded like battery went dead) then kachug, purr....
Another fun part about her was no live PTO, when first couple of times bush hoggin with her hit a couple a trees, pressed clutch but she would keep going.Got good at poppin her into neutral then standing up on the brakes to be able to stop.

I've got two of those WD-45's at home Robert. They were the tractors that I grew up using as a kid on the ranch. My grandfather was going to sell them and I begged him to let me buy them. He gave them both to me. I just haven't had the time to go home and get them. Then again I may just leave them there. They're not worth alot, although they're in excellent shape, but they have one heck of alot of sentimental value.

I use to, then I lost all my bookmarks and it is taking a while to get them all back. Don't know how I found half those sites to begin with. I had a lot of fun with the WD 45 as it didn't have power steering and you had to definitely work to turn it. Great disking tractor though and I am thinking about getting her back. Who knows, I have trouble finding time for the tractors I do have.

Computer is on all day, when I have a few extra minutes I pop in to keep an eye on you guys.

He is an 8pt this year, last year he was a 10pt. Same food and everything but he lost a couple for no reason. I will have to get some better pic's when I paint the M with our bigger bucks then I will think about making a postcard.

I sure would like to get the 1947 2N that used to belong to my father. Our old neighbor bouhgt it from my mother in 1969 when my dad pasted away. It has been kept inside since at least 1959 & is all orginal (still 6 volt) & has never had the engine overhauled - unbelievable... This old familty friend (89 yrs young) is talking about selling some of his stuff so maybe I might have a chance at it. I wish I could pay the same that he paid - $200 i think. He is reluctant to sell his equipment & tools because I think that to him, this would be admitting that he is old...
