Kind of a mean looking tractor. I had never seen one before around here and thought someone else might enjoy looking. Mark

not sure I like the all orange paint job. Should have a maroon chassis. Probably a quikie paint job!

that is a fiat built tractor that was sold by allis chalmers, white, cockshut, oliver, minneapolis moline,, and heston, they are a very good tractor, though the fwa parts can be a pain to find, everything else is readily avilable, i have 41 years experience with a 1355 oliver the same tractor only twd, the tractor runs well today with over 10000 hours on original pump and motor, the only thing that the tractor has ever required was a new clutch, and front end rebuilt (bushings), it does need 4th gear replaced now for it will jump out of 4th gear, but it will do anything i ask of it in 3rd low or 1st high, so i have never torn down the transmission, it spends its time now hooked to a 717 john deere 7.5' buhhog on a rought mountain terrain farm, here it is last month at work

I know that they were very good tractors but I don't consider them to be real Allis-Chalmers. If it didn't come out of the plant in West Allis it's an imposter.

I bet it does. Been a while since I been up that way, but I could see why it would stand out. would make a great conversation piece but the price is way out of my league.

Two farms down from us a farmer as a 5050. Kinda rough shape, but he still uses it everyday. I go by a few times a week, and it sits right by the road next to his barn...

My cousin had two of the Oliver green models. They were both good tractors with well over 10,000 hr each. He sold one last year for $2500 and still uses the other around the farmstead. He's pretty much gone over to the dark (green) side.
