Just saw a "Tractor and toy" auction listing and came across a poor soul who must either be color blind, or off their meds. I think prayers and maybe even intervention to help this person towards recovery.

Today I saw an Allis small round baler hooked to a Farmall super M. Is that even legal? I wasn't sure how to react to it. Things don't feel right with the world now.

If I could take a picture of it, I would post a picture of the grain trailer and semi tractor painted the same. Disgusting

Here goes. That is the first Allis C that I ever seen that I liked. LOL Please do not ban me from this site. I have a dozen or more green tractors but do own two orange ones, a series II D-15 and a WD45. Tom

My sympathy about the 12 green ones, but that kind of makes sense; 12 green tractors = 2 orange tractors ! |

If you paint the ac tractors green you are asking for Shameless to get that rope out. I was just wondering if you put jd on the hood instead if allis chalmers could you trick them green collectors into buying it for big bucks it would be really rare must be worth about $80000 based on the prices they get for green junk... |

Probably that tractor was painted by one of the jd fans that actually need to get something done but still couldn't bring himself to ride anything that wasn't green.

I suppose Latuda<tm> wasn't released to the general public yet when that tractor was painted green.

Scotch brite it, wash it down with mineral spirits, hit it with 2 coats of primer and 2 top coats and it will just fine. Again.

I guess you have your weekend planned. Can't wait to see the after photo.
I think we should just get a couple rate cans for Shameless it will be priceless if someone can get the look on the owners face when Shameless is done. |

Henry Gilbert that owned the JD dealership in Orange Virginia had an AC G he used in his garden that was clearly visible from the road next to his dealership.He had the G painted green so people would think he was using a JD to work his garden.

I wonder how many times someone went in and tried to buy the same green g. That must have made for some funny conversations.

JD tried to make a rear engine cultivator tractor, but, as usual, AC was the innovator, already had the G to market, before deere could even try to steal it. Randy Leffingwell had a pretty good account of it, in his tome on jd tractors...

G would have been a really great tractor if it of had the B/C engine and stronger rear axles.
I owned and used quite a few of them and they were really under powered. |

They did it was called Gill Implement went out of business a whole lot of Moons ago back when AC put a whole lot of good small dealers out of business in favor of a few bigger dealerships.It really accelerated their demise we went from having a really good small dealer 5 miles away to a so so large dealer 50 miles away.AC was thru in my area after that except for a very few die hard farmers that liked AC. |

A good friend had a brother that used a rotobaler with a ford tractor without live pto. A couple of times he did 1000 bales in a long day with that set up I'm told. My left leg hurts just thinking about it.

1000 round bales in one day. That is alot of feed must have been alot of ground. Around here 100 to 300 acres is a big farm. I have been to Ohio lived there for a while but I always loose sight of how big and open the mid western farms are. I just find that mind boggling.

Getting 100 50 lb bales to the acre that's only 10 acres at 2.5 tons to the acre.Of course its a lot easier now for me to bale 5 1000lb bales,not even 1 trip around some fields. My dad baled with a B and a Roto Baler until he bought the WD45. |

Bill was saying 1000 round bales in a day with a roto baler I would think that would be alot more hay then 1000 50 lbs square bales. I have done 1000 square bales in a day alone this summer but it wasn't a fun day.

My way of thinking 1000 50lb round bales is pretty much the same as 1000 50lb square bales unless I'm missing something.Roto Balers will bale a pretty good bale from 35lbs to 90lbs depending on the type hay. |
