This is a picture of me, on the left and my Dad Douglas with our 51 WD. I was 14 years old when this photo was taken. I am now 82 years old. We were an Allis Chalmers family all the while we were Dairy farmers. The stable of AC’s included a 52 CA and several WD 45’s. My favorite WD 45 burned up at an AC dealer when it was taken in for repair.In todays world, that that tractor would have been restored because of its family heritage.  Among my collection I now have 4 WD45's some restored and some unrestored.  Thanks for looking.

	Neat picture, I was 8 years old when my Dad took delivery of a new WD. No photos but that thing had a spot in the garage for while, remember it well.
