Im looking at a massy 640 planter. It looks like a allis 330 air champ!! Question is are parts still available? It only has one set of seed plates, and it may need 1 or 2 fertilizer discs. Other than that it looks pretty good!! Also it has sat 2 or 3 years with the seed plates in and I heard that when left in over time they will warp! Thanks for any info Kurt ------------- WD D17D 170 190xt 190xtIII 200 7020 |

| Yes, Allis did have an agreement with M-F for a short time on planters. |

| I'd like to see a picture of that. Sure seams like MF had a lot of equipment made by their competitors. White made some of their combines..Minneapolis-moline and Oliver made tractors for them..Badger made forage equipment for them..who else made equipment for them? |
