The last tractor from West Allis on Dec. 6, 1985 was a 6070 Serial # 1972. Most of us know that. Here's my question : What was the last piece made at Laporte? For extra credit what was the date?

Ok, does anyone know what was being built there in the end? Did anyone go to the auction after the laporte plant closed?
