Recently had a chance to see a collection of old machinery. Entry is by appointment only. Luckily a lot is stored under cover but the space is very limited which made it hard to get any decent pictures.

There is also a great collection of Packard Cars and Motor Bikes but didn't get any photos of them.

An amazing private collection.

Here a link to a slide show of the photos taken

Looks like the man had a thing for Allis Chalmers and crawlers in general. Nice pictures, thanks for posting them.
