    You watch videos like this and it really makes you depressed to see the contrast of what this country has become from then to now. Really makes you want to go back to the 40's and 50's when this country was still an industrial power house that wasnt going to take shit from anybody and every single American was proud of it to boot. Just looking at that grader, such a simple tool designed to shape the ground. But the time and effort that went into not only producing a functional piece of earth moving equipment but also the time somebody took to give it style. That thing was some nameless industrial designers work of art and it shows in how smooth the lines are. Back then equipment didnt just have function, it had heart. We just dont get that today, its something we need to get back as a nation.

    I cut my teeth on a 1960 Caterpillar 14 grader, after seeing this video I sure wish we had an Allis. They were way ahead of the game with a lot of these abilities and comfort features compared to the Cat I used. I wonder if they were as bad of a knuckle buster as that Cat was? Those pto gear control boxes would hammer the levers and could give you sore wrists after a long day.

    While working on another project, I came across in the Official Railway Equipemnt Register (1977) two Allis-Chalmers railway cars they made. Labeled: ACMX and KWUX. The KWUX is from Allis-Chalmers Power Systems. Combined they made a total of 7 rail way flatcars.

    Did Allis ever produce anything like this video for the 440?

    • @JandLVideos
      @JandLVideos  Před 2 lety

      I'm sure they did but I haven't found it yet, some of their commercials from the 70s have the 440 in it
