- Dave Harrington of Nebraska read about the Allis-Chalmers Duplex tractor, but since one didn't exist he decided to built one. It took him years to find two 6-12 Allis-Chalmers tractors and convert them into the Duplex. The Duplex didn't catch on, the idea was to put two of thee tractors together to create a four-wheel drive tractor for heavy field use, then they could be disconnected and used separately for light field work. It was a great idea but just wasn't practically. Then the Moline Plow Company sued Allis-Chalmers for copyright infringement on the articulating steering. Allis-Chalmers lost the lawsuit and with it production ended on the 6-12 Allis.

What a piece of history! Thank you to all who work to preserve and re-create this almost forgotten American history. 🇺🇸
Well said! Thank you. 🇺🇸🚜👍

Allis-Chalmers was always ahead of their time when it came to innovative ideas for farm and construction equipment. This is just one example.
Most of the companies back then were. They all had their own unique designs and ideas, of which the best ones you still see today.
Love too see the old stuff brought back to life
It's a good thing there are those that are so fascinated with the old equipment to reproduce it, because if there weren't the old stuff would just be pictures in a book.👍👍
Now that’s an amazing piece of equipment and an interesting part of the history of mechanized farming.
I just can't get enough of old iron. Thanks for publishing these videos CTFT.
Very cool. Happy that folks like Dave Harrington can put the time and money into restoring and preserving this old equipment.
Wow that's a piece of history! Very cool restoration.
Amazing techniques! Greetings from the Netherlands! 🇳🇱
That is a nice replica amazing job beautiful and art
I love old iron, that's really interesting and fascinating. Thanks for sharing 👍
Вот это тракторок!!! Как всё продуманно и просто!!
Well done, Mr. Harrington.
I have always found it fun to crank start old tractors
Simply fantastic! Thanks a lot for rescuing restoring constructing taping editing uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all involved people.

Interesting looking unit. Nice resto!
That is one cool tractor!!
Fantastic video. 😀
I have classic tractor fever
I think that there is another 6-12 duplex at the Culbertson Montana Threashing Bee.
They have a Massey Harris, first 4x4, first articulated steering. One other first, but I cannot remember what that was. It has been awhile since I saw the tractor, but it really impressed me that our new Versatile 800, wasn’t that new.
The Massey Harris early 4x4 is known as a "GP" or general purpose
Wow very cool did know they made it 👍
Never saw one of these. Like to see one of these at Rough & Tumble sometime
So does one tractor run in reverse and the other in forward? Are forward and reverse the same speed?
So, AC built the first four wheel drive monster tractor, well monster tractor for the time.
Beautiful machine
Anyone near the Cincinnati OH area know if there are any old tractor shows around here? I’ve never really been on a farm in my life but lately I’m obsessed with these old tractors?
super-cool
so was this the first articulated farm tractor?
So was that technically the first articulated tractor?
I have a couple of Allis Chalmers garden tractors
...himagine having two cars, one for the wife, one for you, that you can put thogether and go drag racing on the week-end... :-)
So basic looking its beautiful.
It's all fun and games till someone Loosens the bolts and it splits in half while your using it
So using one alone would have been a 306?
This Tractor made its inaugural debut at the Stephenson County Antique Engine Club's 45th Annual Threshing Show and Antique Display August 1st 2nd & 3rd 2014 at the Stephenson County Fairgrounds in Freeport Illinois. . . . czcams.com/video/ovikpwFiORo/video.html
