Allis-Chalmers decided to produce small, inexpensive tractors from the 1930s for American farmers with smaller parcels of land. The model B featured an orange styled body with a petrol engine situated at the front.
This particular example has rally-condition paintwork in solid, original condition. It is left hand drive with a bench seat and it is said that both the engine and gearbox run well. It is one of the first of its type, UK built in 1948 to feature a bench seat instead of the usual single bucket type seat. The tractor comes with some previous bills and historic road fund licence that expires June 2023.
Estimate: £3, 000 – 4, 000
