I got a good laugh reading this ad this morning on Craig's List. Salesmanship at its best!
1963 Allis Chalmers H3 Crawler Continued - $3200 (Stephentown, NY) Date: 2012-12-07, 7:12AM EST Reply to: see below 1963 AC H3 4 CYL. gas steel track loader. Then blah blah blah about all the work I put into this machine. BUT WHAT I WON'T TELL YOU.... The gas tank is full of cr*p and the carb can't be rebuilt because its been full of rust for too long. Worse than that, the transmission only has 1st and 4th gears working. If you happen to discover this, I'll tell you that maybe the reason 2nd and 3rd gear don't work is because the machine has been sitting for a long time. (I'm going to imply that the gears may eventually figure out how to mesh again.) To fix this you would have to find the parts from another 50 year old machine which by some miracle has good gears, remove the tracks, split the machine, take the gear assembly, remove the tracks on this machine, split the machine, replace the gear assembly, put the machine back together, and then deal with what ever else I didn't tell you about. If you are still interested, I can send you a cell phone video of the machine running for 30 seconds but what I won't tell you is that was only due to the miracle of starting fluid.
CALL 518-73three-000two and I will do my best to sell you this t*rd.
What you should learn from this.... Buyer beware. What I should learn from this.... Karma can be a b*tch when you ask for it.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
