Yep that's right I'm bringing home a green one this weekend. But at least it's an Allis. I don't know why people want John Deeres. It looks like an Allis B110 early model which will be great to help restore mine. I also need the steering wheel for my HB112. Good parts machine for $50. It doesn't hurt that I think those are guide lights on it . I'm crossing my fingers that the gas tank is decent because I need another one. It's missing the engine but the guy is throwing in a complete 15 or 16hp with it for a whopping $25. Sorry for the dark pictures I will be sure to post a few more when I get it home.

A little update I measured the bore and crank journal tonight and they were tolerable so I ordered a new piston, rings, and rod. Came to about $65 with shipping. So for about $100 I'll have a rebuilt 16hp Briggs no complaints there. It's going in my 7010. I'll get some pics up here soon of the piston I've never seen a piston skirt fail. I'm leaning towards a casting defect because the engine shows no signs of wear. Even the carb throttle shaft has no play at all. Crank journal and bore are almost factory specs. |

I got it home. I won't post anymore pictures because I don't want to scare anyone lol. But actually it's in decent shape besides the green paint. Very tight BGB and rear. Also very nice original guide lights with brackets. Brand new front tires. Also clean gas tank. Now the 16hp Briggs has some problems have it apart and has a broken piston. The rod was damaged but crank and bore look decent. I think I'll get a new rod and piston and rebuild it. |

There set up like a wheel horse. If you could get it for $150.00 $200 you got a deal. Who ever drives the one I have they love it. The kids fight over who gets to drive the sears. Just makes me laugh. No it's my turn they say. |

What's the story with these? I've seen them before but never took a close look. How do attachments hook up and run? Ptos? Also they are belt drive right? I think there's no driveshaft whatsoever. How are the transmissions set up? Hydro or gears? Lol sorry for the 20 questions maybe I should just look it over good when I get there but I don't really see it coming with me I'm out of room here. |

I'm in Liberty, New York and they are about 10 minutes down the road from me. I think he's looking to clean out his barn because he said if I don't take the Allis then it would get scrapped. Funny thing is a guy just stopped 10 minutes ago while I'm plowing with my 7016h and says he has a simplicity and do I want to buy it. He says he'll stop back with the model number of it. |

Nice grab! Whereabouts are you, and your offer for the offbreeds located? |

It looks like a Sears SS series to me. He asked me if I'd be interested in one so it makes sense. It looks like there's one next to it in the last picture too. If anyone's interested in them I'll try and get a picture of them for you while I'm there. I don't think I can take an off breed in though but if the price is right maybe. |

It is a shame but at least I'm saving her from the scrap yard. Her parts will be well used and put back to yellow and she will be put out of her misery. |

That's really sad. I'm probably going to have night mares tonight after looking at the thing.
