Subject: A Nice AC Pair For Shows?

Assuming there is an AC show in the Northeast, I think my 312 and B-207E would make a nearly unique pair, and their my favorute color scheme! Outside of the seats and mufflers, and the 207 has a replacement engine that needs to be painted black, both are almost completely original.
The rims need paint, and I want to find an original seat and muffler for the 312, but I wouldn't be the least embarrassed showing them just like they are. Not bad for tractors about 40 years old.

=] I like that pair, but Chris is right. You haven't had a new toy in days! How many tractors can you haul? 2 in the trailer and one in the Ranger? Sounds like you have some more orange AC shopping to do =]

Ok Larry.....I think you should complete the show tractors by adding your Big Ten, then getting a 700 and a 900 series!

Since Allis made no improvements to the 7000/7100 series, and I dont like orange hoods, I see no reason to pursue 700's and 900's when I have the "ORIGINALS" 7010-6, 7013S, 7016-6, 7112H and Sovereign 18.
Personnally, I think you should repaint your 7117H again, only this time DA green! :)

I think it's time you posted pictures of your "Dirty Dozen" You do have 12 tractors. :)
The only AC item on my list now is a B112, and B1 if its nice AND cheap! My Sovereign 18 has an orange hood and ones the house limit.

You are too much! Get an HB212 too then. A B1 sure would be nice though.

Yup, I have to get my 3212H back together before I consider an HB212, of course the right deal....
I think Duetz-Allis Lime green is a GREAT safety color!
Except for my BIG TEN, which came from way north in VT, They have all come from CT. Roadtrips for all.
And Byron would love to sell me his 620, THAT would be a roadtrip!!!
Byron, why are you selling all tour tractors, are you OK???

Larry,
I Love my 620. But the starter went out. Since I used it as my main mower, I was never going to get to restoring it. So, when the starter puked, I parked it. My garage is crammed with stuff. The 720 was in the way so I sold it to Daniel. The 416H was outside in the rain so I sold it to Daniel's BIL.My 716H has been with me since the early 80's. Now I have room to bring in the 620.
The money I got from the two A/C's and sold a Marshall Amp I used to pay off my 928D Grasshopper with 61" powerfold front deck. 28HP Kubota Diesel just Kicks A$$...
Looks just like this one..

Not bad for tractors 40 years old you say? They look great for 40 year old tractors! Just think what a big box store tractor would look like in 40 years.
