So I became the proud owner of an Allis Chalmers tractor Monday evening.  I love rebuilding things most usually they are in the form of international scouts.  I grew up with several Allis Chalmers combines model E but have never owned or operated an Allis tractor.  After getting it to the house I think it is a not a pure model.  I bought it as a B because of the front end, after looking it over and finding the tractor number it appears to be a C (C18913).  So I am now looking for info to find out how many pieces are not from the original tractor any thing you all could pass along would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Mark

I cant see clearly on the radiator cover... Is there an opening at the bottom left side where a C steering rod might have been ?

 

 

Yours looks like a better job.  Only thing that doesn't match the B wide-front is your grill, it is from the C, has the large round cutout underneath for the narrow front. Other than that, looks pretty complete and usable, just needs a battery box and headlights (if needed).  The rockshaft is a nice find too.  With a little creativity, they can do a lot.

You have an "interesting" tractor.  Looks to be a C with a B front.  As stated above the B and C are basically the same powered tractor with a different configuration for a one  row or two row tractor.   As stated above your tractor appears to be a C with a B wide front.

Again, welcome to the forum.  We look forward to seeing additional information on this unusual tractor.

Good Luck!

Correct.  I'm a bit out of my depth on the implements, but single bottom plows seem to be the most common.  Also seen different cultivators & back blades, not sure what all was modified to fit and what came from the factory.  You can also use it as part of a three-point conversion.  I welded an arm on mine as part of the lift mechanism for my front mounted snow plow.  Possibilities are endless! 

The two hydraulic ram setup on yours is interesting.  Appears your rockshaft is solid all the way across, so they are working in tandem, I assume off a single control.  Most units I've seen with hydraulics have a single cylinder. 

another common use of these tractors is to install a belly mower for cutting larger yards and field maintanance.

Welcome to the Forum.  A wealth of knowledge here, and we can use your input too.  In the Barns, Shops . . . . . section, you can get answers and recommendations on about anything you can think of. 

It's too bad that you just got the tractor and you already have to take off a rear tire and turn it around.  I hope they are not full of fluid!

The last digit is typically a "G".  CE18940G is mid to late 1942.  Most likely the original engine for your early '43.

This is the left side from the front.

Engine Number

If you need magnito work, brakes, clutch, engine internals, then i would post on this site.. Several guys here sell  NEW parts or rebuild parts for you.

 

Best to look local for body parts. They tend to be expensive to ship and pictures rarely tell the whole story.  Craigslist & Facebook marketplace helped me find a new grill, tire chains, & rear wheel weights for my C.

 

For other new to you & NOS items, I second eBay, although the prices can be ridiculous.  Other good options are forum members Alex09(WI), Stookless, & Mikez.  All have good inventory and are easy to work with.  Sandy Lake Implement in PA is another good source that's hooked into the AGCO parts network.

 

For new repro items, I've had success with Jensales.com.  Typically the best when price shopping online, extensive inventory, and I've had good results with customer service.

 

Best of luck on your project!
