Slightly off topic, but has anyone heard of putting a loader on a G? There is one coming up at auction this weekend a few miles north of me. So says the auction bill in the newspaper. |

Very possible, but it isn't an Allis loader, the one from Midwest is the only one I've ever seen.

| Nice setup. I found the auction web page and it has oodles of pictures. Unfortunately there are no picts of any AC equipment. I'm wondering if the bill has a typo. |

| Doug, you will be kicking yourself if you don't go, and later find out the ad was correct. Thanks Joe for posting your good photo; I notice some wood chips still in the scoop. The primary thing that I have used it for is distributing wood chips. Midwest made these loaders in Camanche Iowa for a fertilizer company that sold dry bulk fertilizer. Herb(GA) |

 Here's a picture of the G. Looks like it hasn't been taken care of. No sign of a loader either. |

| Doug, a loader removed from a G is a low profile implement, especially if the bucket has been removed (two pins). Evidence of a loader is the rectangular hydraulic oil tank in it's usual position just below the steering wheel; and the filler pipe and cap welded on top; also the V-belt (laying on the seat) for powering the hydraulic pump. There should be a V-belt pulley secured to the PTO or to the engine crankshaft. Check other buildings, fencerows, under trees, etc as that G had a loader (or some such hydraulic powered implement) mounted to it sometime in it's life. Wish I was there to help you hunt for it. Happy Hunting. Herb(GA) |

It had one, you can see the upright mounts inside the tires, like Herb said, bet it's laying somewhere! ------------- Allis Express North Georgia 41 WC,48 UC Cane,7-G's, Ford 345C TLB |

| Look how that G has been shortened up. There was one like that with a loader at Hutch this year. |

| So it becomes a loader tractor and can't be used for anything else. |

| The reason for the 27"(?) shortening was to improve their maneuverability in unloading a railroad boxcar. To restore a G to original dimensions requires lengthening the two 3" (?)diameter frame shafts and the steering column (steering shaft and the steering sleeve). If this G has been shortened one can conclude it has not seen much normal use. Call me if you have any questions. 678-947-6987 or 678-232-3905 Herbert Metz, retired near Cumming, GA, bought my G & loader from Chuck Felger, Keokuk, IA |

| Too much paint. That tells me they're trying to gloss over something. If I wanted a clean one I'd take the one in the first picture that JoeM posted here. |
