Allis Dealers

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

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.

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

Nice article in the last issue of Old Allis News re: Ray Savery dealership in Ann Arbor, Mi.

Davarn Equipment & Hardware - Pewamo, MI Allis Chalmers, also sold Newholland Implements. (closed 1986)

Here are a few more: Knecht Implement, Paola, Ks., Denker Implement, Elkhorn,Ne., Hancock Implement, Blair, Ne., Mahnke Implement, Omaha and later Fremont, Ne., Rushing Implement, Benson, Ne. and Ruwe Implement, Fremont, Ne.

My Uncle Albert Kell was an Allis dealer near Cookstown Ontario.Dealership was albert Kell and Son, then Allan and Rose Kell purchased the business and the name changed to K and K farm Equipment in 1977.They sold a great number of Gleaner combines in the 70's and 80's. They sold the first Gleaner "G" in 1968.

My grandpa started McGrath Implement in New Hampton Iowa. The business is still being run by my cousin Steve as Ag Land Implement.  First tractor my grandpa on mothers side bought was an Allis B from McGrath Implement.

Within about thirty miles of our farm near westby Wi  there were 4 AC dealers,

Roy Company in Branchville, NJ. 

I am still running our old D17 that they did an engine rebuild on in 1982!
They are long out of business, but were the major AC dealer in NW NJ during the 60-70's.

R&R Implement also had a dealership in Knoxville Iowa as well as Indianola and there was a Dealership in Newton don't remember name but it cost me 20.00 I bet they had not been closed in 1965 but found out they closed in 1964.
