An Allis-Chalmers C Wheel Tractor is a general-purpose farm tractor designed for cultivation, belt work, and light draft tasks. Allis-Chalmers, a major American agricultural machinery manufacturer, built tractors for small to mid-sized farming operations throughout the twentieth century, and the C model represents the company's practical, utility-focused design philosophy from the immediate postwar era.
This 1947 example, serial number 43718, is powered by a 23-horsepower four-cylinder gasoline engine equipped with a manual starter and three-speed by one manual transmission. The tractor features a 540 PTO shaft and a 1⅛-inch rear PTO, with an additional belt pulley for stationary work. Lighting is provided by front and rear lights, and a tool box is included. The tractor rides on 4.00-15 front tires and 11-24 rear agricultural tires, with the rear tires loaded for traction.
Cultivation capability is substantial. The machine is supplied with seventy-inch mid-mount cultivators operated by manual lift, and eighty-eight-inch rear-mounted cultivators with hydraulic lift control. These configurations allow for flexible row-crop work across varied field widths. The combination of PTO power, belt pulley, and cultivator attachments makes this tractor well-suited to mixed farming duties typical of its class and period.
The machine is offered as used and is located in Michigan, USA.
