Allis Dealers

Payne Imp. - Bolivar, MO (still open but not a dealer)

When I was a kid my dad bought Chrysler Plymouth cars from Zahns Garage in Gillette Wisconsin and they were an Allis Chalmers dealer, but they closed in the 70's and sold cars untill 2000. There was Lons Imp in Lena, WI that started as Murphys,  my uncle did business with Lons for years but that was out of Allis Chalmers in 1985 when Miller St Nazianz bought it and sold Same tractors, remember seeing my first 720 with a bush hog on the back was about 9 fell in love with it had to have one but that took till I was in my 30's, also saw a 440  that was parked there because Farm Progress was close by, got my first AC cap , Lon had a program where you could trade your old hat(full of cow s##t ) for a brand new AC hat than he hung your old one on the wall, if you went to an auction it was a sea of orange. There also was a dealer in Belle Plain WI , Belle Plain imp, that closed in the late 70's early 80's, there was Kuehne Imp in Seymour WI, they quit selling in the 1990's after the duetz disaster but still reamains open as a service garage, and the lady that was part owner is still at Tesch Imp in Seymour....a weath of knowledge would be an undersatement describing her.There was Daun equipment that became D&D in Chilton they were the largest combine dealer east of the Mississippi till the Duetz disaster, there are Daun, and D&D decals all over the midwest.They sold TONS of 6000-7000-8000 tractors use to order them in 27 at a time, now they are still an agco dealer but there main line is CaseIH, again thanks to duetz. Those are the ones I remember in NE Wisconsin. At one time there was a dealer In Dale , Appleton---Art First, Waupaca, Clintonville, Denmark, but they were closed way before my time.

Here are some of the dealers in SW Iowa that I can think  of:

I'll add a few to the So. Ill. list...

i have a AC toolbox  that has a il AC dealer sticker on it. it reads
bliss implement co.
princeville ill 61559
phone 385 4464
(lower left corner has the AC triangle)
note the ill instead of il and no area code.

Some VA dealers I know of:

Harman's  in Harrisonburg, VA  an early dealer, granddad bought our '47 WC there and they went out of business I'd say in the '60's. 

Valley Implement sales  in Harrisonburg, VA still in business.  Started in mid '60's selling Allis-chalmers and Bobcats.  sold green DA, and then dropped agco line and went with kubota after that. 

Louderback Implement in Stanley, VA  still in business.  started in '47 I believe.  New holland dealer today. 

There was a dealer in Elkwood, VA sold out about 10 years ago.  Seemed to have a good supply of older AC parts at the auction. 

Elkton Tractor  in Elkton, VA  out of business.  Sold AC along with other brands and short lines.  bought our D17 ser. II new from here.  granddad got the trip to Milwaukee in '62.

A dealer in Fairfield, VA out of business. 

also, My terra-tiger has a decal with Desper's outdoor power equipment in Charlottesville, VA  I'm not sure what all they sold other than my terra-tiger! 

also an interesting note:  I went to Ohio and got some side panels for my 7030 and on the one panel has Huck Creighton's from IL..  as IL gleaner posted... "see huck and save a buck!" 

Dotterer Equipment - Mill Hall, PA No longer an AGCO or AC dealer....currently sells Kubota and I believe New Holland products.

F. in 1965 and I lost out on a lot of info since I haven't spent a lot of time up there since. Memory seems to be a little short also. LOL

My dad shut his AC dealership down in 1980

Foley MN, the building I work in was once a gas station that sold Allis Chalmers. The gas station part lasted longer than the Allis endeavor, and in about 78 the gas station closed and the store has been an auto parts store ever since.  Wruck was the name of the station owners before my employer bought the building, but I do not know the prior history.
