I have a 1958 AC Forty-Five grader that I would like to repaint and have some new decals made for it.  Mine has several coats of paint covering the original decals and I can't figure out what they should look like.  Can anyone help me with some pictures of a forty five that I could have decals made from, or better yet anyone know of a source for decals?  Thanks.

I have sales literature for a forty-five grader. I can't seem to be able to get my scanned items small enough to post. Send me an email and I' ll scan it for you and email it.

Calvin, again thanks very much for the brochure scans.  They should be very helpful.  If anyone has this machine or has some photos of one, that would be really helpful in my restoration too.  Mine is the orange "Forty Five" and not the later yellow "45".  Thanks.

If you look on page 213 of Swinford's  Allis Chalmers Construction Machinery & industrial Equipment, there are 3 good pictures.

Thank you.  I have the Swinford book.  I would still appreciate some photos if anyone has this machine or knows of one. 
Also, does anyone have experience with the power control box on this grader?  I'm having trouble with one of the sliding jaw clutches (controls) but I'm afraid to pull the gearcase cover off until I know what's in there.  I understand there are multiple needle bearings inside.  Yikes!!
