| Hood decals too high and crooked. Grille emblem too low. Engine oil cooler the newer aluminum housing instead of cast iron. Acousta cab #2 with flat front. Radial tire on left front. |

Orange axles (should be black) Two lights in the center top of the cab (wth?) It looks lonely and in need of a good home...

So is your "sluicing" a good or bad thing?? Do the descrepincies in the add make it a game-changer?? Just asking.

| It either never had a cab to begin with and sometime after the Fall of 1977 they bought a new current production cab, or the tractor had a factory cab and it got rolled over sometime after Fall of 1977 and the cab was replaced with the current production cab. |

Thank you, thought maybe a previous owner might have done some "shade tree" upgrades for the better. Lipstick on a pig is probably the better scenario  .

Actually looks like the left side hood decal is on the right, besides being high. ------------- Keeping Allis alive with: 2 B’s, 1 C, 6 CA’s, 2 WD’s, 1 WD45, 3 D15D’s, 1 D17 |

| DrAllis, which models received the cast housing oil coolers? Which models received the aluminum oil cooler housing? |

| Early 7030/7050's had cast iron oil coolers that were square like a box. Aluminum came later on and was cheaper to make I suspect. |

Sluicing has a meaning therefore the statement FREEDGUY typed could be considered almost coded. Sluicing means making a statement without stating all the words but the statement would still be understood. A simple example would be .... Fred can repair a carburetor, not Dennis..... It's assumed that Dennis cannot repair a carburetor without the statement being completed. That is sluicing. Also sluice or sluiced means wash or washed. Had to look that one up. ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

Nope, apparently had Gold Rush on my mind. At least my spelling was correct. More than I can say for some
