Three times now I have crossed paths with an AC man on the way to work.  In or around Front Street in Susquahanna Twnship.  Orange painted older Ford SUV with large "Allis-Chalmers" decal on the rear window.  Andy is that you?

2. I didn't know they let Fred or Harvey out of jail after they stole some parts from a certain someone in England! So it can't be them. LOL

In North Carolina it was Morganton,  In Georgia it was Milledgeville and now in South Carolina since it is in the capitol city the saying is Bull Street.  If I am correct, all three have closed and are now in other locations.

Don't forget Allis Chalmers had a Branch Office in Harrisburgh too.
I hauled enough stuff out of it.
Good Luck!

When I worked CAT in Peoria it was "They're gonna send you to Zellers". I used to work at the Dixon State Mental Hospital, but that became politically incorrect about 1972.
