Shifting Gears … Hall
by Farm and Dairy Staff
1949 Allis Chalmers WD
Owned by Alfred Hall, Springboro, Pa. (formerly of North Jackson, Ohio)
Al Hall bought this Allis Chalmers WD from James Austin of Conneautville, Pa., who had worked about two years to restore the tractor. The photograph, incidentally, is of Al taking his first drive after getting her home from Austin. A “great lover” of Allis Chalmers, Al has had two Allis Chalmers WD 45s, one AC WC, and eight AC WDs (not all of them are restored… yet).
