Allisgator update-almost done-5-11-06

[tractormike]

Garage time has been very hard to come by for quite a while. I did manage to get some done on the allisgator and it's almost finished. I have to make a steering arm for the front spindle yet, attach the steering wheel and build the wood stake box but other than that it's done. I rewired it for an automotive type coil and a soleniod so it turns over and starts by the key switch alone. The push button start switch is in the dash but isn't hooked up to anything. The reason for doing this is so at shows I can remove the key and not worry about someone hitting the push button and it turning over and the tractor moving. I have to make the allisgator decal from the design that my son made yet. I am going to put the decal on the sides of the wood stake box.

Looks really great Mike! you should be very proud of that rig :D }:) that will be fun to bring to some tractor shows ! keep up the awesome work!

[KSever]

Look'n Good Mike!! You could always wire the push start button to work as a horn switch so you wouldn't lose the original look

Marty, The allisgator will be at our show here in Arkansaw Wi on June 24th. I plan on taking it to the gathering of the orange show at the little log house show in hastings the last weekend in July. Also in sept. at Inver Grove Heights day there is a tractor show we will be at. That show is around labor day. At the gathering of the orange show I will have my original B-1, original B-12, narrow front B-10, orignial B-110 with the 26x12x12 rear tire ag tires, and the allisgator. Hope to see you at one of the shows :)

you have a very nice looking tractor.Your hardwork has paid off.

[shanhamm]

SWEET!!

[Marty-MN]

Thanks Mike, your show in Arkansaw WI on June 24th is not listed in Antique Power's show guide so I didn't know about it, we will try to make it there. We will be at Hastings with a D-15II and a 616 or 620 and plan to make the Boonville show this fall. I was planning on the tractor ride from Hutch to Hastings but it is unlikely at this point. When is the Inver Grove Heights day show?

[4xbill]

Awesome! Nice Job. I wish I could match your paint job, let alone the engineering.

[tracktor312]

I am curious is this 4 wheel drive like the grader someone else posted. not that it matters I cant stop looking at it. LARRY K

My dream for a long time has been to build something just like that with rubber tracks on rear just dont have the knowledge you are as close to my dream tractor as I have ever seen.
