A Guide to Allis-Chalmers Farm Tractors

A Guide to Allis-Chalmers Farm Tractors

For more than 80 years, farmers and admirers have seen A-C farm tractors working in the fields. Field performance is just a fraction of the story of these machines, as you will find out in this 120-page book by Norm Swinford. Settle into this photo-packed guide and follow all the models from 1914 to 1985. The fits and the starts; the headaches and the wrong turns; the strokes of genius, and the engineering victories.

An especially interesting section of the book is called Tractor Performance and Testing. The serious collector will love the 11-page appendix with Nebraska results, paint colors, and serial numbers. Another unique section of the book covers the calculation of horsepower and other characteristics. Over 250 black-and-white photos.
