[AT] Allis Chalmers wheel disk

[Al Jones]

Wow, Charlie I didn't realize a CA had that much HP, I was thinking it
was just a tricycle-front B.  Anyway I will try to stop this week and
take a closer look.  I have been sorta holding out for an IH disk or a
nice King, but no luck so far.  Then again with all the other stuff on
the horizon, I don't need to be buying any more old iron anyway! :)

Al if it is about 8-10 feet wide it was one designed for a CA Allis. I
think
it would be 9 1/2 feet wide.  It is designed to work with the 'traction
booster" system (draft control) on the Allis tractors.   That doesn't
mean
it wouldn't work behind your 450.  It probably would.

The 12 foot one in the picture was built for a WD-45 to pull.

If you decide you don't want it let me know I might be interested in it
myself.
