This is misidentified as a model CB, so it doesn't come up in some searches. It was barn kept until pulled out for photos. Unknown if locked up. Good rear tires and CA front side weights. https://www.proxibid.com/Allis-Chalmers-CB-Tractor/lotInformation/56153851" rel="nofollow - https://www.proxibid.com/Allis-Chalmers-CB-Tractor/lotInformation/56153851 |

The weeds are growing around it pretty good for something that was just pulled out of the barn. I'll bet the auctioneer crook will also take bids from the pigeons  ------------- If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere. If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY |

"You have to be in it to win it." I treat auctions like this like Ebay. Inspect the item, figure a max bid, and do it online (even if I'm there- to avoid making extra bids). This CA: front side weights $200, rear wheels $300, hood $50, wfe, $200. Max bid ~$700 - there are so many inexpensive CA's showing up for $1k. imho there is much less $$ risk buying a running unit elsewhere, especially as their prices keep falling with time. |

If you want it for parts, it might be a good buy. If you are looking to make it into a running, useable tractor, you better have a thick wallet !

Pretty decent original looking CA,depends on how much a person wants one.Distance is a big issue trucking can add up a lot.If I could turn the motor over and it had compression I wouldn't be worried about it not running. |

The weights and rear wheels/tires were worth that. Rest, just cake. |

$400 more than I would have paid ------------- I am still confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Ps 27 |
