Straight blade about 9` 8". AC angle blade nearly 12`. Garwood angle blade came here on the earlier tractors with a shorter moldboard than the AC blade.
An after thought; a number of HD11, D6, and TD14/TD15 tractors ended up with blades from HD15/HD16, D7, and TD18/TD20 tractors. Because the track gauge of the bigger tractors was the same as the smaller models, the blades could be fitted. The moldboards were a bit longer, and the whole assemblies were WAY heavier, ruining the balance of the smaller tractors

| Thats the AC straight blade (Baker design). Best blades in the business for keeping clay live or tumbling on the moldboard, and a favourite of loggers working in BIG timber for rolling logs onto truck and jinker bolsters |

| I could see offering $2-3000 if and I mean IF it starts, would have to at least turn over freely. Missouri also had a bunch of Allis machines until the late 80's, still see them all over southern MO on farms and in old construction lots. |

Nice old speciemen. I concur with all the blade comments. It should be under 10' (Baker Blade era). It appears to be the first year of production (1955) judging from the hydraulics. It still has the original style Lanova engine. You really should hear it run to see if it sounds smooth. If it runs rough it could have cracked heads do to heating up .It was a very common problem with that style of engine before AC changed to direct injection. Another problem was the intermiadeate pinion cap bolts working loose and shearing off. Look to make sure they aren't loose or missing and that the case hasn't been welded on. They were originaly 1/2'' NF bolts later changed to 5/8'' NF, you could look at the bolt heads and tell the size. We have resized to the bigger bolts on some tractors. Might not be a problem anyway , but worth a look. Kinda thinking $2000.00 would have to be max if everything works. You could look through the sprocket spokes to check the cap It's one of are favorite all time AC tractors and we have started restoration proceedings on one that will have a baker blade with a Garwood front cable unit and rear CARCO winch |
