Allis Chalmers

by Leave a Comment

I bought this Allis Chalmers tractor from a guy who’s dad had restored them to factory like. The older fella went through the whole motor and rebuilt it. Went through the clutch and transmission. He restored all kinds of tractors Farmall, Allis Chalmers, Case, John Deere and more. Unfortunately he passed. He left all the tractors to his children.

I found the tractor listed on Facebook in Benton Harbor, Michigan.

Allis Chalmers D-21

Allis Chalmers

This is our families Allis Chalmers D-21 series 2 that we have owned and used for over 30 years.  When my grandfather purchased the tractor, him and my father restored it. We still use this tractor every year for fieldwork like discing and plowing. We love to also try and show it off every now and again when we get the chance.

This picture was taken at a family friend’s barn just down the road.

My Father’s Allis Chalmers G

by Leave a Comment

This 1948 Allis G was purchased in the early 1990s by my father. It sat in his barn still wearing its very neglected work clothes until his death in 2014. I told my family that I would like to have it to restore and keep because it was my Dads.

After 4 years of working on it in my spare time it is 99% complete. This was a fun project to do, to honor the man that taught me so much about mechanics and perseverance to complete this project.

Jesse and Grandpa’s Tractor Time

by Leave a Comment

When my Grandson, Jesse, was less than a year old he began to ride with me on our tractors, and you could see the smile show his joy in anything tractor. He was born with a heart issue and spent a lot of time in and out of the hospital, but when he came home he was ready for a tractor ride.

We had a Kubota cab tractor, John Deere skid steer, Farmall H, and I bought a Farmall Cub just for him. He loved to work on the tractors, fix flat tires, and bush hog the pastures. Every Friday at the end of a long work week, I would get a cold beer, Jesse would get a Root Beer and we would ride the tractors, he called it Tractor Beer Friday. This became a tradition that I will always cherish because Jesse passed away recently at 4 ½ years old from a ruptured artery.

He may not physically be with me but he is always riding with me on the Farmall Cub, observing Tractor Beer Friday.
