Went to the annual Golden Horseshoe Show today and yesterday. It's a steamshow and there's an antique village set up there. THis year they fearued Allis Chalmers. I took the 917 out, the 416S and the case. Somebody asked if the case was for sale, but nobody asked about the allis'es. There were a few small garden tractors there, And I took a whole bunch of pictures. There was also a guy that pulled had 3 Lanz tractors, All with single cylinder 2 cycle deisels. One was 28HP and the other was 60. One guy had a B10 he redid and made it a B18 with a 18HP briggs v-twin. It looked real nice. He also had a Wonderboy 700 restored nice with a sicklebar, and a tiller.

Some cool pics Graham, thanks. Like the rear rims on the 700. Are you sure that case doesn't need a home, don't look like you've done any restoreing to it yet180 or 190 is the case model I'd like to find

I'm glad I finally saw some more Allis'es. There were only 9 garden tractors there, I thought there would be more. For now, I'm gonna run the case as it is, and adapt a simplicity blade and clear snow. I would like to find a 190 too, but I don;t think the guy wanted to sell that one. I like the tires on it:) If I were to restore one, I;d have to restore the 716H. It is in excellent mechanical shape.

I dont really know much about them, since the guy didn't say much, but they look like a nice home-made set. He's done alot to this tractor, he made new driveshaft couplers, added lights, had the seat re-covered, and he's got all the little peices too. It must have taken him ages, but they look way better when you're beside it then when looking at the picture.

Graham, the 190 Case looks like it could pull a house down, really though looking machine for its size. The B18 looks really sharp, especially with the chrome. Thanks for the great pictures.

Just noticed the B-212 has the wrong hood, supposed to be a flat hood, still looks good though.

Ya, you're right I didnt notice until you pointed it out. I dont know what was wrong with it, there were no belts on it, and no s/g. THey lifted the loader onto the trailer and pushed it on. THe paint was good, but the decals were scratched originals.
