What's cool about these postings is that there's always SOMEONE still left alive who has some direct experience.
Fewer and fewer Every day ...
I still run my 1958 allis HD6 consistently on my property
These are excellent old crawlers.
My Dad bought an old used one of these in the early 1960s. I started running it when I was 15 or so, about 1964. It had the 'Tracto-Shovel' bucket setup. A well worn machine it was loose and sloppy but did the work, you just had to learn how to handle it. We built a lot of roadway with it, moved dirt, dug gravel. Had an old 1947 GMC dump truck with a wide box - hauled the HD5 in the back of it to the pit and back. Always wondered if that was why there were broken springs on the truck - LOL - could not have been the way I overloaded the truck all summer long. When my wife and I moved back to town it was still running - Memorial Day weekend 1977 I dug the cellar for the house we are still living in with it. My brother and I finally scrapped it - worn out but did a LOT of work in its lifetime. You could not kill that Detroit Diesel - but then there were a million of them out there running everything from landing craft to reefer refrigeration units as well as trucks and tractors.
I recognize this channel
Thanks for sharing that, pretty cool in many ways. "Interesting times" to have grown up in.
Today's commercial would be dealer driven "look how complicated...no farmer will be able to repair it himself"
I have one of those in the barn, has the loader on it. Still runs and works.
Of course, it's an Allis Chalmers
I have five.
Frank I'm envious of you my Friend. Thay sure where universal work horses. I operated a Dynahoe -190 with that Detroit Diesel (353) they showed. The military liked it for swapping parts.
I love at 5:20 how the truck drivers hanging on the back of the crawler while the other fella fills the truck, old America!
Men with 6th sense , pride, knowledge respect.,
That was so 80 years ago
Be a sacking offense today .
That does it! The next time I need to shovel, drag, shove or grab a shedload of something, I’m using an Allis-Chalmers HD5!
Thanks, Periscope! I can still hear the snarl of the 2-71's in the 5's of years ago. Thanks again!
My daughter and I read “Katy and the Snow Plow”. It’s about a tractor much like this one. She enjoyed this video. Thanks
THAT'S IT! I'M BUYING ONE!
Man , that tractor is something!!It does it all well!
My HD5B has dozer blade and a big Carco winch on the back, starts right up even if has been sitting for a month. Well, a touch of ether helps sometimes. Not an easy machine to run, but reliable.
A VERY UNIQUE MACHINE AND VERY VERSITILE TOO
Thank you for posting this!!!!!
I Owned an Allis-Chalmers H-3, about a 1962 or so, 4 cylinder diesel with a dozer blade, and I am Sorry I sold it!!!.....It was a Great Little Machine!!
For a small 4 cylinder Diesel, it was as much power as needed!!.....I got Years of use, and it only let Me down once.....When the track rolled off...
Simple electronics learnt to operate in late fifties
Cold in winter but.
Charlie
No ROPS, No powershift trans. No fingertip controls or air ride seats. When operators were real men.
Yeah ... nothing but fake men now.
This stuff is what built the world
I have an HD6G it takes 4 arms and two feet to operate it 🤣
The quality of yesteryears.
Thanks
I hope they added a cab at some point! Would be cold or wet in most weather.
If I remember from the operator manual, there was a tube and fabric "cab" available. Wouldn't count on it to keep the heat in or the rain out after a few years of use.
Try to find something made like that today lol
Another comment is seeming the Army Duce and a half with the front boom to load logs onto the logging truck. A local Sewer company had the Ton and a quarter surplus Army rig. To raise manholes. They keep it up till the earliest 2000s
There was an ace shop guy who had restored the vehicle, he kept the Rig in tip top shape.
To operate. The Logger who logged my land in Jefferson county WA. State. Let me Level my lot. He used it with front forks on the Loader to move Logs. The HD-5 also had a heavy duty rear winch, it could pull the Loader out of any stuck position. Then he bolted on a bucket that had for forks square welded plate, to slide the Loader on. Easy change from Fork to Loader. The big control Levers for the clutch. I did a boo, boo. By leaving the lock in for a bucket raise I left it forward one time. Could not figure out why HD-5 would not start again. I always checked the two Levers after that to make sure that they were in the center ( neutral) position after that. We sometimes had to jump across the starter with a welding rod to start her. She would run all day. YES that was fun with that HD-5 in the 70s, making the flat spot for the cabin.
Nice Thanks
I live in wi Allis Chalmers will always make the best tractors for all the tough jobs in the usa
Too bad the name was bought by Fiat. The West Allis factory closed nearly 40 years ago.
@@christianpetterson1784 the name wasn't bought by Fiat
@@RJ1999x I should have said that the company *merged* with Fiat, to become FiatAllis.
@@christianpetterson1784 true. The Allis Chalmers name is still in use
@@RJ1999x Sadly, it's just at name at this point, especially to someone like me who routinely drives past what remains of the old factory which is now in danger of being torn down.
That engine
Mmmmm
Show the film of Stonehenge being created in the 50’s
I got the experience on the first Front ( Shovel)
Allis 🙍♀️ has her Chalmers . . . 😎
Seeing is not believing as you still need faith to believe so, shouldn't be better called "Seeing is Knowing"
These days you need faith to believe what you see.
When men were tough as nails .
Back when men were tuff and wanted to work

I really and truly enjoy watching most everything by Periscope Film, but also really and truly wish that there was not the PF# and counting clock all the way through the films. That is about the only reason why I do not support PF via Patreon.
Periscope is primarily a business that sells licenses to antique stock footage. If you want to purchase the licensing rights from their website, they will provide you a copy without the watermark.Honestly... how can you be that dense?
@@futsuu Dense? Many films are copyright protected, without a logo and clock smack in the middle lower half - when I use captions, what is printed is blocked by the VERY DENSE Periscope info. They could have it bottom left or right, slightly smaller. I do enjoy the films that they come out with, as I am usually aware of the subject matter to a limited extent, having lived through a lot of it, or experienced it. EG - I flew in a Connie (C-121) from San Francisco to Clark Airbase, Philippines, in 1956. Later, I was captain of a Civil Air Patrol squadron who actually had a Super Connie as a "club house", radial engines and all.
@@craigwilcox4403 One time, I 360 no-scoped clark peters in Counterstrike 1.6 it is basically the same thing.
@@futsuu Please - what is Counterstrike 1.6? And what does "360 no-scoped clark peters" mean. Not wishing to be rude, just inquisitive.
Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes.
In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous RUclips users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels. It's hard enough work preserving these films and posting them, without having to spend precious time dealing with policing thievery -- and not what we devoted ourselves to do.
