Allis Chalmers 712s Questions!

[Allis712s 0]

Hello, Me and my dad have had a 712s for the last 7-8 years. Actually got it gave to us :D Runs pretty good and isn't in real bad shape. Might restore it someday. But right now the ignition switch went bad and we are having a terrible time finding the right switch, the local shops are hopeless and I haven't found much on the web because the original INDAK switch only has the patent no. which is 2868906. Anyone know what switch I need? I was also wondering what year it is. The ID no. is 1690075-002872. Thanks a lot!!!

If you have an O'Reilys auto parts store nearby, they should have that switch in stock. Good luck

If it has the 4 little round lights on the outside of the hood its 1974-1975. If it has the 2 rectangular ones inside the hood grill, its a 1976-1978.
