2003 Toy Tractor Times Tractor
20th Anniversary Allis-Chalmers 7030
 

The 20th  Anniversary TTT Tractor is on the way.  The AC 7030  was expected to be released by Ertl in February.  Unfortunately Ertl has had a production delay and will not be able to deliver the TTT tractor until May 1st.  We apologize for the delay.   As soon as the model arrives each order will be sent out to by UPS to ensure the fastest delivery possible.  We are working with Ertl on the 2004 model and will review the process to avoid future delays.  We appreciate our readers support of the TTT tractors going back to 1986.

Although the AC 7030 is not out yet, we can share a picture of the box.  The picture above is the front of the TTT AC 7030 box.  With 1,092 models to be produced the collectors box should make this TTT tractor stand out in the collectors market.  This is the first of five 1970's TTT tractors and the box has a special #1 graphic.  The box will use the Allis-Chalmers logo and "Open Your Eyes & Compare" logo in several places.   The history of the AC 7030 will be given on the back of the box and collectors points on the 1/16 model will be given on the sides.

With a special inscription printed onto the model, donating it as the 2003 Anniversary edition,  the 7030 will also serve as the 20th Anniversary for The Toy Tractor Times Magazine.  The 7030 has authentic 1973 Allis-Chalmers maroon and orange paint, black mask cab,  rubber tires, die-cast wheels, steer able front axle and rear duals with 36 inch row crop spacing.  Each model will come complete with a specially designed collectors box with appropriate identification and historical write-up on the Allis-Chalmers 7030.  The Allis-Chalmers 7030 will launch a new series of Toy Tractor Times Anniversary Tractors from the 1970's.  This new TTT Anniversary series will help collectors start a new collecting tradition if they have not followed the Toy Tractor Times 1/16 Tractors since their start in 1986. When TTT first started offering 1/16  Anniversary Tractors the theme was small tractors of the 40's and 50's which included the 1986 Anniversary  Massey-Harris Pony, 1987 Anniversary  Allis-Chalmers B, 1988 Anniversary Minneapolis Moline V, 1989 Anniversary Oliver Super 44 and 1990 John Deere L, 1991 IH Farmall A., Case VA and Ford 9n.  We would like to bring a new series of  popular big iron 2wds from the 1970's.  The 7030 will be followed by other popular tractors from the 70's over the next few years.  

Ertl has offered the 7000 series Allis-Chalmers tractors in 1/16 since 1974.  For a very limited time a 1/16 7030 was produced by Ertl with out a cab and another version with an orange cab. Both tractors were available on single rear tires and had maroon chassis. Less than a year after the 1/16 7030 toys introduction  Ertl switched the model number to 7040 to reflect Allis-Chalmers new upgraded tractor.  The Toy Tractor Times has gone back to 1973 to offer an Ertl Replica of the original Allis-Chalmers  7030.  This new collectors Allis-Chalmers 7030 has the never offered 1973 black mask Acousta-Cab, authentic maroon belly and rear die-cast duals set at 36 inches to set this model apart from any AC toy produced before.  These extra wide duals highlight row crop farming in wide bed rows used to raise beets, peanuts and cotton.

The 2003 20th Anniversary TTT Tractor marks 20 years of farm toy reporting and leads the way into a new collectors series.  We hope that the AC special features and stand out box will make a prized piece for many collectors for years to come.
