Nice looking tractor....I spend most days riding one around....I have a 170D and 3 175D's. Today it was the 170 for 7 hours, I don't think I used 7 gallons of diesel...fuel gauge barely moved. ------------- ALLIS EXPRESS! This year: |

| What would you have to pay to have one of these follow you home? This one looks to be in good original shape. If the price is a secret I understand. I'd like to have one follow me home too..... just wondering how much to save...... or spend on the credit line? |

Nice looking 175. I'll bet Tracy Martin is real jealous. But I am just a bit also; don't need one, can't afford one - but still would like to have one.

I found this one on Craigslist at a dealer in Pennsylvania. I gave $6,300 for it. A little more than I wanted to pay but it has 2553 original hours it was a one owner. It appears to have been well taken care of. ------------- 1960 D-12,1948 WC, 1973 160, 1977 175, 1984 6060 |

Nice tractor, just can't find one anywhere close to me. Location ain't important if it is a good tractor. Wish it were mine. Still hoping. Tracy Martin ------------- No greater gift than healthy grandkids! |

Got to bale some this afternoon and I'm very proud of the tractor. It was flawless if you don't count the starter going out. Was racing trying to beat the rain so didn't have time for pictures. Maybe next time. The power director takes some time to get used to. I needed another hand. By the time I was done it was almost second nature. Now to get the starter rebuilt.------------- 1960 D-12,1948 WC, 1973 160, 1977 175, 1984 6060 |
