Well another longtime Allis Chalmers store front is no more. Went to my in laws in St John's, MI. Patterson's Paterson's and Son's on M21 is no more they have very few tractors around and for sale signs up. Haven't been there a whole lot but when I was it was to pull up a chair and talk to Harry and the family about AC or life.

I was fortunate enough to visit with Harry and Scott Paterson at their dealership in 2017 during the GOTO.Two of the nicest guys you will ever meet.Here are a few pics from that day.The 7060 had only 67.5 hrs on it.

Interesting how they snuck half-a-B in there.
Thanks for sharing the pictures
Seeing another dealer go hurts. 
Fred, keep Wertz Power and Equipment near Lineboro MD alive.
Good Luck!

Anyone know the story on the front half of the B? would have been interesting to have the back half outside the building...
