Well I found another that I just had to buy. It was sitting up at my best friends house. His father's friend had dropped it off along with a car, I guess he just didn't have the room for them. So we called the guy up and $50 later it's mine. I got it home and it the engine was seized up. It wasn't too bad as I freed it up easily and the cylinder wall looks good. The deck looks nice and it spins freely with no noise so that's a plus.
And my favorite part the hydrolift
This is Simplicity/Allis number 6 for me. Here's the 7010, HB112, and B210 lined up.
My B110 and 725 are in the process of being restored so they couldn't make the line up lol. Also I had a Landlord 101 but that got torn down for parts since I didn't think it was worthy enough for a restoration.
Here's my 3 decks

I agree with Briggs. Western NY is full of old Allis and Simplicity's too. |

There's also a downside to having so many tractors around and that's, that if I ever decide to sell them I really won't get as much from them as you could get for the same thing. Another thing is it's so addicting and I'm only 16 and I'm already running out of room for them. I hate the feeling of buying more tractors before I can finish restoring the one's I already have. |

Too bad I don't like the Cub Cadets lol their not even comparable to our tractors. The Old man I bought my B110 off of had 5 others. I showed up too late as all the others had been sold already. A B112 with at least 5 attachments and enough parts to build 2 more tractors was sold for $500 I wish I got that deal. But anyways there are about 6 or 7 Allis Chalmers/Simplicity within 5 or 10 minutes from my house that I know about. I bet there's twice that, that I don't know about. I've had my eye on one of my neighbor's Early B10 that's in mint shape been garage kept and it hasn't been used in years. Indeed I believe the Northeast is the best place for Allis Chalmers/Simplicity.

I am jealous of the large crop of vintage tractors you guys have up there. I guess the lack of tractors down here saves my marriage. |
