I think you are better off letting go and taking to the scraper on that one don't mean to be negative but she looks a little to rough to bring back

Thanks God Bless

Call Norm Mienert in Davis IL he may know of someone that might be interested. He has a nice restored L I believe.

At the bare minimum you should take the tow hook off the front.
Its worth more than Scrap price!

I hadn't noticed that tow hook until you mentioned it, drujinin. That thing is kind of a work of art.

I agree there are probably some good parts. It is hard to see condition from the pictures, but I understood that Allis undercarriage parts are pretty rare anymore. From the distance, the sprocket, rollers and idlers look at least O. K. At least the rollers still have all their flanges on them, which is better than many I've seen.

I think you might at least find homes for a number of the salvageable parts, and still end up with about the same scrap money for what is left over. It is just a matter of being willing to deal with the time and trouble of publicizing it around, and waiting for the right people to come along.

Pete.
