 Topic: Allis Chalmers Museum
Posted: 21 May 2011 at 8:44am |
|
I'm new to Allis Chalmers and recently purchased a '49 WD to do a restore. I'm thinking of visiting the Allis museum in Paris, Il. Anyone been there? Is it worth the trip? It's a short drive as I'm in St. Louis.
I can't make it to the show in July but was thinking of visiting later in the summer. Thanks.

I have not been there but there are discussions concerning this museum and it's owner Dale Haymaker. I have varius CD's depicting shows and events that take place there. To me it is well worth while.
Give my kindest regards to Dale.
Good Luck!

Dale is a great guy and has a great collection. Worth the stop if your passing through and worth the trip for the Orange Power of the Past show he throws every July.
