c.1948 Allis Chalmers Model B tractor. Registration number not registered.
There is no paperwork with this lot.
In the early 1930's, Allis-Chalmers tractor division studied the market for small tractors as some four million USA farms were of 100 acres or less. They concluded that there was a need for small, inexpensive tractors to fill the needs of the small farmers still using horses.
The Model B was initially powered by a Waukesha1,850 cc four-cylinder engine, then from 1938 by an Allis-Chalmers 1,903 cc engine. This was increased to 2,052 cc in 1943, all with three-speed transmissions.
In 1947 British production of the Model B began in the UK, using components imported from the USA.
A total of 120,783 Model Bs were built.
This Model B is in running order but we would advise a thorough going over before going on a tractor run.
