ALLIS-CHALMERS 200 Tractor Working on Fall Tillage 

What a great tractor. I rented 200 acers from an old farmer in 1978 that had a 200 with the factory cab & A/C. I was 18, and worked for a big farmer who had nice equipment. He had a 4020,4230,4430, and a 2670 Case. In 1980 I begged the old guy to let me pull it at the fair. Needless to say he didn't like the idea. He asked what I would do if I blew it up? I said I will put a new engine in It guess. So we shook hands and I went to the pull. I put it in the 10,000 lbs. class. There was about a dozen in that class. There where several IH 1066, JD 4020's 1 which was hauled in from out of state with a M&W blower and you could tell it was turned up. 1 old 930 Case. All the farmer's said I didn't have a chance against the competition! Let me just say the look on that old farmer & his wife's face that night in the stands was priceless!! All that for a 1st place trophy and a 100 dollar bill. True story in Lee county ILL. I won by 2 ft. 4ins. There are only 2 kind of people in life. The ones that think they can & the ones that think they can't. Unfortunately they are both right. My grandpa taught me that. He also said nothing is impossible, it just takes a little more determination. I'm 61 now and I know he was right!

We farmed with a brand new 190xt in 1968 pulling a 21 foot Krause offset on wheat stubble. We would work at night when it was cool switching off and on with Dad. The coyotes would stand and stare at us while we went by. It was a horse !! Great memories !! Miss ya Dad.

Awesome gear Allis Chalmers. Still sadly missed today.

My dad bought a 200 in the spring of 72, the first one our local dealer got in. Had to be one of the first ones built. He still has it and uses it to mow a bit, plow snow in his drive, and give grandkids a ride. Great old tractor.

That’s one sweet Allis!! Keep coming with the AC vids!

Just something about the older tractors of yesteryear that I like more than today's style.

My father sold them from 59-85. We ran mostly D-17's. Started out with a WC before I was born, then a WD. The D-17's came later. We eventually ended up with my grandfather's 180 that was rebuilt to 185 specs. My neighbor still uses it. Pop eventually got a nice 8050 to brush hog with that I sold several years ago to a local farmer. They sold it to a dealer down east that is restoring it. Pop knew the dealer and that helped sell the tractor. I plan on going down there to see it eventually. Great videos as always. I'll die an Allis man just like Pop.

The good Ole days. That tractor looks like it's in original condition.

I like the old Allis Chalmers

We have a diesel 180 that we use to pull a 12 row corn planter. It harvest time it is also used to pull 4 200 bushel grain wagons (2 @ a time) to the bins. We also have a 220 (non-front wheel assist) tractor that we use to pull a 15' Great Plains drill to drill beans. We also have a D-17 narrow front end diesel, a WD, & a 175 diesel that mainly get used as 'chore' tractors. We also have a D15 with an Allis Chalmers loader bucket, a 190, & a D-21 with rice tires. The 190 does baling & mowing of waterways on our farm & the D-21 used to do a lot of tillage & pulled the grain drill for many years. Since we have gotten rid of our cattle & gone to no-till, the tractors don't get as much of a workout as they used to.

I’m haying my farm all with allis chalmers I have five of them 190 xt ,185, 6060 and two lawn mowers one diesel one gas been farming with the 1968 190 xt and the 1970 185 since they were new my dad bought them and I’ve been adding to the collection since 2010 after his passing I love those tractors

We had a 175 growing up. It was a great tractor.TY for sharing

What a nice looking farm and it’s great to see an Allison Chalmers tractor working in the field

Allis power! A workin man's tractor! Gets the job done at a price that you can afford!

I’ve always been partial to Alice Chalmers. I worked on a New Jersey dairy farm before and during my teen years. We had an Alice Chalmers C, WD 45 and WD 45 dieselWith a wide front end. I cultipacked oats with the C, plowed, pull the Haro, disc, and hold wagons with the 45 and the 45 diesel. Mode hey and bailed with the 45 diesel also! Thanks for the video!😁

My Grandpa farmed with all Allis tractors and a Gleaner combine. WC’s WD’s D-19 and 190xt allis rotobaler and Gleaner E combine. Today I hobby farm and still have the “Orange” in my blood.

I have a 200 and use it everyday! Love it!!!

I love the 200. This is Awesome. It is like going back in time watching these older tractors from the 70s era.

Keep the allis coming

I have a 200 with the factory ROPS and canopy, great tractor. Allis Chalmers 👍

My grandpa had a 200 allis. They were sweet old tractors. Pulled a cultimulcher with it. Good times.

Always liked those style of Allis. Very memorable tractors. Thanks Jason.

AC are real classic tractors👍😉 the older iron can still get the job done😁👍 Thanks for the video👍

My late father in law and his family were all Allis guys. 190xt’s, 200, 220, 440, and a few others. I was impressed with the 301 engine in those.

You did it again!! Great job!! My brother ran a 200 with cab and air. I had a 190lll with cab we pulled 516 plows and 16 foot disks! My brother baled hay with the 200 and Vermeer F balet this happened back in the 80s!! I be watching!!

I miss those days

I've always loved that series of ACs!

Love the Allis! I wish they still made tractors!

When I was growing up my dad had a D-17 he used as the planting tractor, secondary tillage, and utility work.

There are a few good Farm channels on the Tube but yours my friend is in a class of its own. Of the many things that contribute to your success is your obvious passion for what you do. If growth and prosperity is equal to your effort and quality then I'm thrilled for you and your family. Thank you for sharing your passion!

I current run a 1973 AC 185 as a loader tractor and for haying. Wish it had a live pto but wouldn’t change anything else. Very reliable machine.

I had my 220 out the other day doing the samething. Enjoy seeing other people that enjoy do the same stuff with there orange beautys

I love seeing those old tractors still holding their own, these old tractors were built to last, the tractor in the video is older than the young man driving it. Stay safe God Bless Kevin Fox, England, London, Essex

My father worked for a large farmer who also owned the Allis- Chalmers dealership & they had a mechanic that would work on any tractor in the area . I learned about driving every size from a Wd 45 to the 200

We have a small family farm in Pennsylvania. We run Allis Chalmers. We currently have a 180, 7000 and a M2 Gleaner combine. We had a D17 that my grandfather traded in on the 7000.

Little tractor pulling that plow pretty good

I do believe my great uncle had one of these on his beef and sheep farm near Momence, IL when I was a kid. I was a city kid and love to visit his farm. My uncle had a dairy herd first in Miderryville, In and then in Monee, I’ll. Learned how to mild a cow when I stay there in the summer. Always wished I’ed have grown up out in the country!!

Our farm was always AC,.WC and WD when I was there, later on my brother bought a 180 and had two D19's, I have a WD45 for show now. Keep up the good, always good to see the orange.

I had a 200 for awhile. Used it to pull a disc bine and bale hay. I upgraded to a cab tractor or I would probably still have it. Good tractor and easy on fuel.

We have run an AC 200 in central Utah for the last 25 years to cut and bale hay. Our model has a factory Cab with an air-conditioner that has never worked since we got it. Tractor has been run less than 100 hours a year for all of those years and has experienced a failed water pump and failed alternator but thats about it. A couple of years ago it started leaking small amounts of transmission, hydraulic and engine oil. We just got a used Kubota M110x to replace it for next year's work. Thank you for sharing your video of the AC 200.

Very impressive tractor. I have an AC 175 diesel tractor that my dad purchased new in 1973. It is a very good tractor today.

I always liked the styling of the 190/200 AC’s. I think the 200 is my favorite with those flat top fenders! Dad has my great uncles 200 he bought brand new. Even though I’m an Oliver/White guy, I still like the other brands as well! Great work with the videos keeping the old iron alive!

that's a well taken care of workhorse.

Buddy of mine still has a 200. Original owner. Have driven it a lot. One of my favorite tractors to drive.

We had a 180 and a 5050. Both really good tractors. The 5050 had a loader on it and we’d take the muffler off so we could clean the heifer barn. At some point we just left it off and ran it every day like that. The 180 did a majority of the work on our 300 acre dairy farm in western New York. We had a Case 930 for tillage and hauling chopper wagons off the hill. That’s all the Case ever did. I miss those days.

We had a 75 AC 200 with factory cab...great tractor

That’s one sweet lookin landhandler

Awesome tork rize in those things

I have a 200 with a year a round cab and a loader on the front. Starts all the time in any weather it’s a good machine

Good morning from the UK....... That young lad was in yesterday's video your videos are great and very educational thanks for sharing

I learned how to drive a tractor on the Allis 200. It was the primary tractor on our farm. I have fond memories of riding with my grandfather on that tractor and later doing the chores myself on that tractor. Never would have dreamed of running a 21' disc behind it though.

I love the antique tractors!!!! They seem to last forever!!!!!! Great footage! I’m glad I found this channel!

cool That size tractor used to be the big dogs in it's day

Nice AC very well cared for. Nice looking old Case setting at the top of the field...next video? Sewing some winter Wheat.

Great video stay safe buddy and God bless y'all

I have a 1974 alischalmers 200 diesel with cab. We farmed over 2000 acres with it years ago. We now farm 5200 acres with modern tractors and combines . Those 200s were built to last . Ours runs an auger for loading grain bins but it can still run our 20 foot notill drill and disk . We run a 5 bottom plow with it on crp ground. Nice video stay safe and farm on my friends !

Love that tractor. I had the chance to drive one with a brush hog. That's my dream tractor.

Hey really enjoyed the video I grew up in Kentucky on a dairy farm milk and 50 had a cattle and raising 5 Acres at the back of my dad worked in Cincinnati at William Powell.. my grandpa had an Alice Chandler d10 we used it too set tobacco run the wheels out to mow and Ray Kay and on rolling ground even Belle hey pulled logs out of the woods love the color and it was a pulling little booger for its size it's a shame that they don't still make tractors like they used to I am not impressed with the high tech new tractors at all sensors and computers is a recipe for a royal problem in a pain in the butt thanks again for the video and by the way I just bought a 185 LS Chandler that needs crank bearings the elderly gentleman that had it was pulling an 18 ft batwing bush hog

Very nice video. Like muscle tractors.

Sweet tractor! My buddy had a 190 we made hay with! Good to see it working

Always thought that series of Allis was a sharp tractor. I like em boxy like that. Krause made some good disks. Wouldn’t mind finding one like that but they usually bring pretty good money.

That is a good old tractor!

Back when I was a teenager my neighbor had one and sometimes I use it and disk for him it had a cab it was a great tractor back in the day only down side if you were going down hill with a load behind you it would jump out of gear I have been told by other people who owned them they had the same problem 👍

Thanks for doing the video

When issues arise, no need to hook up a laptop and try to figure out wtf is wrong. Things were a lot simpler then, and tractors rarely had major issues as long as you maintained them.

Nice 200

Nice video Jason. Definitely not an air ride seat there and wow that disc was drifting quite a bit for sure. GO BTP!!💪💪

I love these Allis videos!

Used to run the 6080 to haul silage wagons back and forth from the fields to the silos and baling hay and straw and the farm I worked on also had the 8070 front wheel drive that we used to spread liquid manure and cultivating and discing

Boy I wish I still had my 190xt 1968

We have a 200 Allis Chalmers. Used to pull a 5 bottom Oliver plow and and a 20 foot 1200 series Allis Chalmers field cultivator. We use it in the hay field now along with our 4,000 hour 8010 Allis Chalmers and our 7060.

Nice👍

One sharp tractor 🚜

Where I grew up in Northwest Washington State during the 1950's and 60's, there was an Allis dealership about a mile from our farm so everyone in the neighborhood had Allis Chalmers tractors of one vintage or other. I got lots of time on WD45's, D-17's of several series and others. I now own a 1957 D-14 and an HD-4 dozer. They are great tractors. Our older son and his father-in-law run three Allis on their beef operation: 190, 7000 and 8030. Keeps my son busy fixing these older machines but he loves them and they keep on performing for them. Allis Chalmers had great equipment, both agricultural and industrial, just poor management during tough times killed the company.

I have a friend who I went to school with just a few months ago bought a 1973 AC 190 from another guy I went to school with. Been sitting in the barn 17 years. It was always barn kept , still in great shape except it will jump out of 5th gear sometimes. I be interested in buying it when he decides to sell it. He buys and sells older farm equipment all the time . He said he wanted to hang on to the Allis for a little while. But he will eventually sell it. He gave $10,500 for it. Great looking and running tractor.

Thank for the good vid

I farm specialty crops (Christmas Trees, pumpkins, plus a few acres of corn/beans) with a D14, D15, D17, 180 gas, 180 diesel. We have some newer small tractors, but the AC's still get 100-200 hours each per year. They do a lot of spraying, mowing, hauling, and people moving / hayrides.

The 200 must be the replacement for the 190 XT. We had two of those. They were good tractors. Nice to operate. Gutsy engines. I believe the 190 XT was 93 hp. I saw a glimpse of something else in the video that I like; a Case 800 row crop.

Neighbors had Allis Chalmers 👍

I used my father’s Allis Chalmers model G to plow the vegetable garden at my parents house.

This tractor is on the cover of the Heritage Iron magazine I got today in the mail.Would like to see a 7000 to

Good old machine that you could fix on your own. Just few wrenches and way you go. Beautifull and timeless design! I am also suprised that it can pull disk that big since it is 2WD.

I had an old allis c with a 5' belly mounted sickle I cut alfalfa with as a kid...took all afternoon to mow 4 acres! We lost it in a barn fire...would love to do it like that again...

looks like a nice little farm and a very nice tractor. God why'd I have to be born here in the damn mountains and tourist country

Some nice bouncing action going on there.

Nice! REAL tractors are orange! Lol I love all tractors.

We had a 190xt back in the day and we would of bought a 4020 but our John Deere dealer did have one and he had this tractor on his lot. We use it for just about everything it was our big tractor till we bought an 8430 John Deere.

About 15 years ago my dad had a 7030 and a 6080 A.C. Both were used in hay and feeding cows.

200 & 190xt needed 18.4x38 radials to hold that engine to the ground . plenty heavy , but the back up tork was strong .

Looks like he must be working that ground they just recently ripped....rough ride. Also must have some oil/gas wells on the property.

Good solid machine

It’s hard to believe that those tractors, cases and John Deere’s were monster back when they came out. I mean you were living good if you had a brand new tractor back then

Great looking tractor still earning its keep! I sure hope the operator is wearing ear plugs otherwise he'll be like me with hearing loss and tinnitus!

Throw a set of 23.1-30s on it.. literally wore the tires off one!! Then put 18.4-34s on with duals.. they worked better!! Miss the old girl!

Loved the color and the 4 band, 3 groove front tires, and also the angular shape. I don't like any oval shape aeorodinamic wehicle.

My employer has a D-17 that he uses to chip wood.

👍

I had a7050 and 7060 on my farm.

My dads looking for a 200 we got a 170 and a 175. Almost had a 185 but seller backed out on us. He has a D-15 of my grandpa's that got slightly burned years ago just havent had time to restore it.

Had one growing up, had a disc for it too. This disc would be way too much if he was actually discing a field with a crop just off, he's just barely scraping the soil. Looks like a hobby farmers with a love for the great Allis tractors, just out driving tractor.
