Another example of Allis Chalmers being way ahead of the trend

There used to be a Terra Tiger Track in San Antonio, TX when I was a kid. I loved going there and blasting around and going thru the water. What for days those were.

That presentation was excellent, I loved the parody to the original adds🤣

Yeah ... Best I could do on short notice!

oh my God how did I find this video, this bring back so many memories, we had one as a kid on the farm, very slow underpowered and was horrible in the water, but was so much fun to drive and everyone was interested had lots of stares. Thanks for the memory. I thought you weren't going to buy it after the 3 hour drive.

Sold them, stocked parts for them, turned them over, floated on the pond, and they were a hit at the 1968 State Fair of West Virginia.

Your first video was interesting. It's 2022 now, it's time to see it again. Good job.

Awesome video I just picked one of these up last week I’m looking forward to getting er back in action

Nice video and a humorous comparison to the original ad. Keep up the great work. Subscribed!

I need a bigger man cave room, I started digging out stuff to put in this one and its already full! And I've only gone through about half of my stuff!

On our farm 1960's - 1985. AC Crawler dozer, no blade. Plowing/chopping corn. AC WD-45 (2) 1 gas, 1 diesel. AC D-19 (2) 1 gas, 1 diesel. AC 180 AC 185 AC 190 XT series III Landhandler. AC 7030 AC 8050 4WD AC Terra Tiger - 10hp, pull start. Certainly miss those days...

ima simple man i see rare vintage tiger with a good new home i sub 😂

Hah! I remember those! We never had any Allis Chalmers tractors or combines. If it wasn’t IH or Versatile, we didn’t own it. But my father in laws family was ALL Allis. 190’s, 200’s, 220, 7060, 7045, 8070’s, 440’s, and a 8550. I learned to love those as well. I think their series 3 190XT was my favorite.

I was more impressed with the guys yard, can't believe he let him drive around in it

That girl is going to have lots of fun in that machine! I think it would run better if you do something about the "adapted" center wheels-obviously from one of that other companys outdoor machines. As long as I have my D-17 and 7080, Orange Power will live on!

If you use synthetic high performance two stroke oil no blue smoke. Nice rig! Ps " Big Allis" Turbine Genet still powering NYC today!

Cool buggy. Yours has the bigger tires in the middle, lookin like it turns good. Ive seen other brands on the tube and they have the larger tires front and rear

It should have the same size in the middle but those were wore out and they don't make em anymore so that's what we had to replace them with

I had one two the major issue i had was the drive clutches would burn out. Rebulding them was pain ass if you could get the material. As far as the JLO motor the thing was great my piston did crack i think from sink in the lake..but rebut it new piston rings it was awsome. We did a test after clutch rebilds to climb the 45 degree rock. I still rember it would move on the street at least 30 mph.

I have one of these... Got it in kit form, almost everything is there, just got to put it back together... and put new tires on it.. also have a Argo Bigfoot, it's a pretty cool machine too

Sorry for the late response, I didn't know you had answered my post....

I just got a Tera and been trying to find a place to get parts

A friend of mine has a Terra Tiger but it don't look like yours. It has a few issues!

Hey great vidio. I used to sell and race these. I have a lot of old racing pictures. We did real good against all the other brands until Maxx came out with the two cylinder engines. They were fast on flat dry track. When we got in the mud part though our Engines just out pulled them completly. We also used to take them down to the interstate hyway construction area. We could ride for miles. One thing we did that pushed us out front was using Klotts Chemical oil mix in our gas. Kept the spark plugs clean and engine running. Ifin you would like to see some pics send me some directions on how to get pics to you. THere was a difference slight dif. in the body on the 10 HP unit and the 18 HP unit. We did put a snow mobile 440 engine in one. we had tocut a hole in the body side to get it in. THe hard tire you have in the center should be put in the rear. It will give you better speed and better handling. THe 18 HP units we could get about 50MPH out of using the hard tires on the rear. You cannot go to more hard tires as you loose control of it due to bouncing. THese were also great fun on the lake when it froze in the winter time. You could spin forever if no snow on the lake. the most fun is to run it in about 3-4 inches of water you can really spin and play . Anyway i wish i still had mine. Thanks for the vidio Steven
