Real Life Machine
Allis-Chalmers introduced the WC in 1933, and production continued into the late 1940s. The WC was a lightweight, affordable row-crop tractor powered by a four-cylinder engine and designed for jobs such as plowing, cultivating, and belt-driven work. Early examples could be fitted with steel wheels before pneumatic rubber tires became more common. The WC helped establish Allis-Chalmers as an important farm tractor manufacturer, and its long production run reflected its usefulness on American farms during a period of rapid mechanization.
