I have an Eshelman walking tractor like that.  I also have a wheel weight on it.

 

I have a 1954 Riding tractor, and my brother and I have a 1956 Deluxe Riding tractor, that has the hood on it.

 

I have a couple of cultivators, a sickle bar mower like in the pictures, a reel type mower, a couple of plows, and a dump rake.

 

My brother and nephew has a childs car.

  I was doing a search of the forum for "Eshelman" , and found this posting.  We would love to see some pictures.  the only Eshelman units I've seen were at a show in Penfeild ,IL. in July.  They are a unique brand  and design. 

  Glad to know someone is preserving some more of them.    Rick

Here are a few pictures of our Eshelmans.  The one with the hood is a 1956.  The one without the hood is a 1954.  I'm not sure what year the walking tractor is.  The rake is an Eshelman also.  I got the weight that is on the walking tractor at Jones, Mi. a few years before I got the tractor.

I had these at Penfield in 2015, or 2016.  Maybe they were the ones you saw.

Danny on your Eshelman Deluxe I see you have the grill mounted on the engine mounts. Is there a reason for this? I know with chain drive and half links you don't need much movement to tighten chain but without a slotted hole where it mounts on steering column you would have very limited adjustment to slide engine. Looking at sales brochure it looks to mount in front end of engine adjustment slots. Just wondering because I'll be installing a Briggs 23 and would like to know if I'm going to run into issues like clearances. I rebuilt this engine 10 yrs ago just waiting for a project to use it on but I have to turn the oil pan around to work.   I plan on taking as many of my Eshelman's I can fit into the trailer to your show in July.

Last couple pix of orange tractor just an Allis?  Hmmm!  Guess I've never seen one like that before. Love those big boxy rear fenders. That way they were, or someone added?  Wonder if any pix of this model finished up on here?  I'ld like to see one all done.
