I see an ad at the bottom of the page for Pfout Family Farm in Hiram, Ohio, reading the ad I see Norm has retired and sold his business to the Pfout's.  Good to know parts will still be available!

Well CONGRATS Norm!!  Does this mean I won't see you any more at the special bone yard where I first met you?  God knows you need the rest and Donna probably likes it more than you!  God bless you both from here forward, where ever fate takes you!

Mark and Rosie, are you going to be at Hutch like Norm was every year?  He saved me a lot of shipping $$$....  I guess you could say I helped fund his retirement plan...

Thanks for all of your efforts over the short time I have dealt with you, it certainly made the restoration of my Model A a lot easier!
I am glad someone else will continue on with the work in ensuring these machines continue to be restored and used.
I am certain that without you Norm several less early Allis' would not be in the shape they are in today.

Norm, congratulations on your retirement.  If you're going to show tractors in the future, I hope to see you in Rantoul next summer.

Hello everyone, My name is Mark Pfouts.  I see that people have noticed the ads and I am glad to see it.  Norm has done a great job over the years of finding sources for some of the hard to find items when you are restoring these tractors, and we will do our best to continue this.  Additionally as time goes on we will continue to try to find sources for part numbers as more and more goes to obsolete.

I am sure this does not mean you will never see Norm, as he is still very much involved in Allis-Chalmers.  He still enjoys talking to everyone, and from everything he has told me, he will still plan on being at the shows, he will just be able to bring tractors to show, not just parts.  I think he is excited about that.

I look forward to talking to those that I already know, and getting to know those that I don't.  Anyone who has been in this long enough will tell you the best part of this hobby is the people that you meet.

We plan on doing shows during the season, and I will post more when we know for sure what shows we will be attending.  We ask that you bear with us as we get organized.  We will be building a website in the near future with a complete listing of our parts.  Feel free to call us with any parts needs.  We will have an ad in the next Old Allis News, and currently have an ad in Antique Power and in the parts section on allischalmers.com.  I can be reached by phone (440) 570-3653 and by email pfoutsfamilyfarm@gmail.com for any of your parts needs

Thanks again to Norm, as he has done a lot for Allis-Chalmers over the years, and continues to be a great resource for us all!!ClapClap
