Lot's of sellers will jump their price 100x to go on vacation. Keeps from having to relist. It's easier to change prices than end/relist an item. ------------- Owner of http://www.OKtractor.com" rel="nofollow - OKtractor.com PM for an instant response on parts. Open M-F 9-6 Central.

For all the detail somebody went to to make this, WHY didn't they put a side delivery manifold on it like the original tractor?

They could be had either way, but I agree...the 45° exhaust looks "right" on a WC. AaronSEIA |

The same seller has one on steel priced the exact same. I have seen this one listed multiple times at the same price and always scratched my head wondering who's going to pay them that price. I guess he figures there's a sucker out there somewhere and buyer beware! http://m.ebay.com/itm/Allis-Chalmers-Farm-Tractor-1930s-1940s-Vintage-Machinery-1-12-Model-Diecast-WC-/301941602047?nav=SEARCH |

| I think at that price it should be a scale model that runs. |

I had to dig out my parts book and look, yep, effective on engine W 106509 for WC and WF tractors, you could have an upright manifold with a muffler.  I guess, ya can learn sompin new every day. ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

I think you could get it on a kerosene WD too, but it was available on the gas WC and WF.  ------------- http://www.ae-ta.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.ae-ta.com Lena 1935 WC12xxx, Willie 1951 CA6xx Dad bought new, 1954WD45 PS, 1960 D17 NF |

Defiantly a Franklin mint 1/12 scale. Very detailed but not worth that much by a mile. ------------- Nothing is impossible if it is properly financed |

I never did understand Franklin Mints sizing of 1/12 or 1/25 scale. NOBODY else makes things in those scales that I am aware of, so they don't fit with collections.

Jim, Charlie, You are right. It is a Franklin Mint model WC. Note the hat on the front pedestal - that came with the model. You are right about the scale. I could never understand it either. I have several Franklin Mint Models and they dwarf the others I have. Can't believe the price. Good Luck! Bill Long
