• FEATURING: Allis-Chalmers 7030. The AC 7030, along with its larger sibling, the 7050, launched a "totally new" tractor line for Allis-Chalmers. Launched under the slogan, "Open Your Eyes and Compare", the AC 7030 certainly did open some eyes when it was introduced to dealers in 1973. Feature tractor owner: Duane Cates - Williamsburg, IN.

• Zanello: The Argentina Rhinoceros. What was this strange tractor? Where was it from? What was it doing in Fargo, ND? For the third answer, Steiger was considering branding this tractor and importing it into the United States. 

• Machinery Milestones: The tractor scene from 30, 40, and 50 years ago.

• DMI's 21-Bottom Salute: Hydra-WIDER. There was one illusive plow built that few know about and even less can pull. It is the crowned jewel of the DMI line - the 9021, serial no. 00001. 

• Mini Muscle: Bud Scheid's Mighty Minnies.

• The Gehl Blazer: An amphibious machine that could drive on land, float in the water, and even had detachable skis for winter.
