It's a 1934 Allis Chalmers WC
Tractor Number WC301 with transplanted engine number W53764K
I was at an auction and had to out-bid a scrapper to rescue it.
It was listed and sold as a non-running tractor, and it came with a mounted cultivator.
The front tires were rotten and couldn't hold air
Gary supplied a couple of newer style front wheels
and I replaced the front wheel bearings.
With a different carburetor and magneto it started.
See a video of it running for the first time
in many years
The rear gang was not attached, we made some repairs and bolted it on.
I rebuilt a proper carburetor and got some new hoses and a fan belt.
The shift tower has been rebuilt and a new boot attached.
It should be the old style so I'll
have to find one.
It has the original steering wheel
The early WC's had a pipe elbow to raise the gear oil level in the rearend
The casting was changed
on later ones to move the fill hole up.
The first 510 had a hinged gas cap, the wing for this one was in the toolbox.
It looked rough but made it to the 2012 Orange Spectacular
See a short clip of driving it at the showgrounds before hauling it home
