Fred, can you do something with Buddy Lee? He still won't stop looking at me! That is too dang creepy! LOL!
Very nice job Fred. Anyone would be proud to have a setup like that.

Fred, that is just awesome. I plan to do a much smaller version based upon my Granddad's AC dealership someday. I have only seen Dale's in person, and his is awesome as well, but I would like to visit the other full displays some day. My hats off to all of you that have the time/ability to preserve all this orange stuff. Michael Crowe

Fred, Great pictures hope to come east someday and take a visit! Now for the issue??
I see why there is a problem!! You posted a reply to Ted J and said "soda", in this part of PA, we say "pop", "yeans", "red-up", "an-that", sorry for the spelling, BUT "Pittsburgheze"! LOL (help me out guys, my spelling, etc. can use it).
BUT, I hope to visit someday, looks good, see stuff I never seen, meet and greet, for a hot-dog and a SODA! Got to have fun these days.

Nice job on that collection, Fred. A lot of work and planning seems to have been done. I'm going to have to make a trip down there to have a look. Add it to my "bucket list".

The Mid Atlantic Allis Chalmers Club held their meeting in this outstanding museum Sunday. As much as I looked I could not take it all in. It is an excellent presentation of very rare collectible Allis Chalmers Items. I like to get some unopened canned parts for my office. I have three?? Fred has shelves full. What a collection. Thanks again Fred. I look forward to another meeting at your place. This time I WILL NOT go to your neighbor's place first. (He does have a neat 1940 Ford Panel Truck) Good Luck! Bill Long

Dave, it is pop here too. Either regular or Barley 'Pop'. LOL If you went to a 'soda' fountain years ago, you could get a glass of pop or a float or a malt, but never a 'soda'. ROFLMAO
