| 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? |

1. It ain't me! I can only wish I had a bright orange car/truck/suv but it wouldn't be something thats Found On Road Dead. hehehe. 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.
