 Topic: New Orange Guy
Posted: 05 May 2012 at 6:50pm |
  Hey All, Been a red guy till I Got my first Orange one by luck, A 220 awd. Found it in Flagstaff Az At the time it was just another tractor to me. Then I got a G at a grage sale in Feb, Used one in the tobbaco field when I was a kid. Then I bought a 7000 for the family farm in Wis,in March. Never thought I would every own a orange one but now Im hooked on them. Stew in AZ

Looks like you found a nice one . I know the correct grille will be hard to find but you could get a peice of expanded melal and make one and help the looks and keep debris from going through front . Keep the orange rolling!

Man that looks just like the one Mark Heitman got in from AZ. It was posted for sale on WI craigslit but came out of AZ. It has the same pinkish orange paint, front bumper, seat and steering wheel. Wonder if they came from the same farm??

Out of curiosity New orange guy,could you tell us what you like about the orange better than red? I haven't drove alot of red other than H and 300 wich I liked the 300 better because of TA and powersteering better controls etc. Just sat on a few big red ones and they seemed awkward to me.

Hey Guys,Will I was raised on red, back in Dane Wi, my uncle had the red ones,Started on a Super MTA, then on to a 560 with a turbo , 806,1256 1468,then a 1566. But my stepdad worked at Ramish imp, in Dane were they sold Allis Chalmbers tractors.
So I always seen what was new from Allis, I remembered when Jack Ramish got in the new 220 fwd tractor, so I ask Jack if I could take it for a drive and he said YES !!! I was 15 then. Thought it was the coolest tractor ever. I like to buy and sell a few tractors,cant keep then all, I live in town here in Phx, and my wife think Im nuts for buying them, anyways, [She a city girl ] so I keep what I can.
