Couldn’t resist another…my 23rd AC (and an Oliver 77). First off a compression test, clean gas tank, new fluids oils filters, complete tune up, timing, rebuild carb and find serial number. Jeez busy week!🤔👍And a 6 foot rear scraper blade to freshen up! ------------- Blue Skies and Tail Winds Dana |

I would entertain CA-3 if the right one popped up. Maybe even just a parts machine? |

| Frank Walker Auction I believe. Sold an Allis collection this past weekend. Results can be seen on Proxibid. A d17 diesel with front blade and 3 point conversion only brought 3400; a deal , if the motor was still strong in it. |

Great looking CA for sure. Fun little tractor and a real workhorse for its size. ------------- My tractor is not leaking oil, it's just marking it's territory! |

I went a week ago and looked at all the AC’s. I really wanted a winter project like that D17 gas…but the oil was pure white. The 17 D I just wasn’t thrilled with what I saw so I grabbed the best one I saw which was the CA. I have her totally drained, stripped, and waiting on parts. I’ll get another 306 for her belly. Cheers. Dana ------------- Blue Skies and Tail Winds Dana |
