Rare Tractor Alert! Check Out The Deutz Allis 9190, Gary Anglin Tracked Down!​

Feb 23, 2026 #classictractor #tractor #classictractorfever
We traveled to Missouri to see this one! Gary Anglin has a prized tractor in this 1988 Deutz Allis 9190. This is one he had a deep connection with since it was a tractor his Dad had. This is the very same tractor Gary had to track down years later!

Cripes, I'm feeling old. Last time I ran a (farm) tractor, Deutz-Allis hadn't been created yet. (Reorganization/takeover of Allis-Chalmers). That 1988 was his father's tractor? I'll bet his father was too young to run one, in 1980...when I quit working on the golf course.

It's a rare tractor because Deutz-Allis never got market share. Everyone knew it was just European financiers trying to wring the corpse of Allis-Chalmers for a few more bucks; and support, in the future, was gonna be minimal.

We lost a lot of tractor makers in those years. IH was about to fall. Ford was folding its cards. Massey-Ferguson...don't know what happened; just that they slowly disappeared. White. David Brown, anyone? They were an English engineering company with a tractor subsidiary. Sold it to Case about 1972, and for some reason, Case shut it down a few years later.

Case's motto then was, go big or go broke. The company became huge - buying IH's farm-equipment and tractor lines; and then focusing on mega-tractors and construction equipment. They're owned by Europeans...Davos, probably, now.

Only John Deere stayed clean of that chaos; but now they're big on preventing owner repairs. Which makes zero sense, given how and where farm equipment is used....that will be the end of Deere.
