    Another great plowing video, don't know if there is enough on UA-cam to get me through the winter though? The fall plowing question, dirt mellowing over the winter, ;like everyone else said. Erosion would be the big strike against it though. Spring plow-days are hard to find. I'm going to hope to make it to Reedsburg this year, again. So far I've never gotten there, even to watch.

    We had an Allis 5050 2Wd 8 speed. Nice handy little tractor. Compared to most 40 HP utility tractors that extra 10HP that the 5050 had made a real difference. We also had a 6080. front half was AC while the back half was Fiat. That little 4 cylinder combine engine AC put in the 6080 really had to work to crank out the claimed 83HP. The 6 cylinder AC 185 could outperform it.

    Interesting history you have recorded here. As you mentioned Fiat tractors and powertrains showed up in many colors, and names. Fiat licensed the use of its tractor design to many different companies, allowing Fiat to reach markets around the world. Kubota added their 6 cyl. engine to the Fiat Powertrain to create the M4500, and later AC purchased powertrain components and added an AC engine for the 6000 series tractors. That AC 5050 in the video was a based on the Fiat 540 Special DT, and it is equipped with the optional creeper gear. The DT indicated front wheel drive. Very nice tractor for its age. AC imported approximately 12,000 Fiat tractors during that time. AC tractors were manufactured in Romania, while the Olivers were manufactured in Italy. Oliver never imported the Fiat 540 and the comparable 3 cyl. Oliver 1255 and 1265 were based on the Fiat 450 and 480. The hitch corrections on this unit are due to an internal leak in the lift circuit. Most likely at this age it is the piston seal of the lift, or possibly a leaking circuit relief valve. Either one of these concerns are easily repaired through the front side of the 3 point hitch housing.
