My grandfather and my dad  ran  an Allis Chalmers  dealership from 1931 to 1992.  It was called Anderson Auto and was located in Ella, Wisconsin (Arkansaw address) Here are a couple pictures of the garage.

Hi Neil,
Remember me?  Sure would be good to hear from you again.  My younger brother Jeff has reopened the garage and works on all kinds machinery.  If you are ever in the neighborhood, stop in.  Here's my cell phone number - 715-495-7949  Give me a call.

Hey Crazyhorse,
I am restoring my D15 that my grandfather purchased from Anderson Auto Co.
I am trying to find some of the old dealership stickers or a clean photo of the dealer logo so that I can create the decals on the sides of the tanks on the tractor.
Let me know if you could help me out at all.
Thanks!

I remember attending the auction in the 90's. Neat place.

This is the better of the two decals that I have on her but its still too rough to be able to pull a decent trace off of to recreate a vinyl die cut version of it.

They used to have the Mosquito fest right next to the dealer in the park. I always remember the chainsaw toss competition as a kid! Cool dealer right on the bank of the Chippewa river.

Daves (crazy horse) brother works at Heitman Salvage in Durand.
I have a graphics design guy recreating the image I posted so that I can make new cut vinyl decals for the tractor after I get it painted.
