I got my load of stuff home from my trip. The main reason I went down was to get rear skeleton wheels for my UC but I ended up getting some skeletons for the WC as well as 2 sets of round spokes for the WC and an adjustable wishbone front for the B. Had a chance to meet Michael and his Grandpa in Nebraska and Ray in Kansas and had a great time talking Allis and looking at tractors. I got to see tractor C#54 and it has the engine serial # located where the BE #'s are just like my C30 and C11 in Wisconsin. I tried to find a windwill while I was there but couldn't get ahold of anyone in the short time I was down there. Here is a pic of the UC rears. They are missing 1 cleat but if I can't find one I'll make one.

| I love those old metal tractor wheels. Is there anyone that still makes them that way? |

I'm guessing that around world war II was the last time steel was offered. ------------- Waukesha B, B, IB, G, styled WF, D15, 615 backhoe, 2-Oliver OC3's, 4 Ford Model T's, 3 Model A Fords, AV8 Coupe, AV8 Roadster, 1933 Ford Wrecker |
