will it run 1938 allis chalmers b with rare waukesha engine

[@bluegrallis]

All Waukesha B's were built in 1937. That is NOT a Waukesha engine. It is an Allis Chalmers built engine.Waukesha engines were flathead engines and they had the magneto on the left side, with carb on the right side. All Waukesha B's also had a brass serial number tag riveted to the torque tube. Serial numbers for the engine and the tractor would not be the same unless it happened by accident on a 1938 model.

The engine on this tractor has the Waukesha emblem cast in too the head under the valve cover and I know the 1937 had a flat head engine

The words "Rare" and "Allis B" can't ever be used in the same sentence! Regards 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

Troubleshooting that would be pretty dang fast I suppose! That tool compartment is the cherry on top too. Perfection

Front rims are not 38. All I've seen are solid cast wheels centers.

@@rescuerestorerepeat8500 The mark you refer to is the Allis in house foundry mark. What you have is the normal Leroi designed motor that was in all the Allis B and C series tractors after the very few first ones with the L head Waukeshea motors you refer to. If the chassis number is from that first release, then some one has upgraded the chassis to the newer standard production motor. Likely because the original failed and Allis didn't support that early version with parts. Those Combine power units were often placed in tractors as an affordable repair as the power units were every where when those combines were retired. I've had several of these little tractors over the years, still have them. They got used so much that the original motors were junk. Instead of spending a lot to completely rebuild the motor, we simply went to a local scrap yard and bought up all the power unit motors they had from AC pull type combines they scrapped. Those power units didn't get much use and were normally like new inside. I simply clean them up inside and install them!
