Old Allis Earns its Keep in Michigan
By Glen Wunderlich
Restoration was completed on this Allis Chalmers model IB (“I” is for Industrial) in year 2017, just in time for the “Gathering of the Orange” event at the Mid Michigan Old Gas Tractor Association show.
This 1956 tractor appears to be the latest one assembled and sold based on all documented information available to date.
This winter in Mid-Michigan, the tractor has done a fine job keeping things open. And, as far as I’m concerned, it’s been fun work!
