We have a Farmall B with a Woods 59 belly mower that dad bought in 1975 and used for probably 35 or more years till he got too old to do it anymore. It has been the most economical and trouble free mowing rig I have ever seen. He put as many hours on it in a summer as the field tractors, maybe more. I overhauled the engine after the first year and since then the only repairs was a clutch, new voltage regulator and I rebuilt the starter. The old Farmall engine will last many, many more hours than any other mower engine and I'm sure the Allis engine will have the same trouble free longevity as the Farmall engine. We still use the B occasionally just to exercise it. I haven't run an Allis B or C with a mower but as I understand the Allis has only three speeds? Either too slow or too fast? Someone correct me if I'm wrong on this. The other posters are right in saying a rig like this needs more open spaces. Our zero turn will mow circles around the B when it comes to close quarters but the B runs circles around the zero turn when it comes to economy and trouble free longevity.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
