Looking for more Case dealers

[Don Rudolph]

Good Morning everyone,

As long as the blizzard of 2018 continues, I thought I would ask for any information on additional original Case dealers that may have been out there in years past. It seems to be getting harder to find them as the original owners have now mostly passed on and we have to rely on 2nd and 3rd generation people for information. Also, there are less promotional items on Ebay than before.

Thanks to all who have contributed already. The database has over 2400 dealers so far. Don

 

[Mike Groom]

Don,If anyone is interested I have a bunch of Case manuals I would let go cheap,my E-mail is open for a reply.

5. Oswald's Implement, Conneaut Lake pa, Family bought a new 885 from them in 1980 or so. I think they were done at the merger.

Morning Don,
Out mowing the lawn this morning, and took a barley pop break. While I was in the shop ,I noticed that F.B. McFoose & Co. in Benton Ill. delivered my 411 to a customer on Feb 28th 1955. Also I need to go back a few posts to find a Dealer in Michigan I spotted. CM

 

[crooked rows]

Do you have this one ?

 

[Black Knight]

These are in Remsen IA. Started with Peter Homan Implements, Then it was Homan and Daldrup Imp, then Remsen Implement and farm supply. I do not know the years in which they operated. Peter Homan would have been my great great grandfather, he was born in Luxembourg in 1848.

I think I gave you the name of the one that was in Stamford NE. Westerburg Exchange. There was also a dealer in Alma NE named Haeker Implement. Sold Case and Minneapolis Moline equipment. It closed in the early to mid sixties.

 

[tractorguy2]

I like the row of pedal tractors in the window.

 

[Don Rudolph]

Farmers Sales and Service in Vinton, Ia. was operated by Bob Skinner. Washington County Farm Store in Kalona, Ia was operated by Cecil Miller. Skinner close in about 1969, Miller closed in the late 70's I believe.

 

[big orange]

Case Power and Equipment was a company store in Cedar Rapids , Ia Opened in 1969 closed in late 80's or early 90's. Had about 5 different managers over the years.]

 

[Don Rudolph]

Thank you for the additional information on these dealers. Don

 

[8NHENRY]

Also was a Case Power and Equipment in Alton Iowa, think they closed up in the 90's

 

[john from Ontario]

Don, my FIL was a Case dealer in Exeter Ont. from around 1950 until some time in the 1960,s It was called Exeter Farm Equipment.Not sure if you have any interest in Canadian dealers but here it is.

 

[kenbob]

Yes about Alton. The dealer was a powerhouse of Case and NH. I worked for them the summer of 1969.

 

[Rick in Iowa]

skinner didn't close.some how lost case franchise.he still sold parts and short line equipment till late 70s then retired and sold to dell hanson who worked for them many years..Bob Skinner and his wife were very good to deal with.I was just a customer but he tought me a lot about working on machinery.

 

[big orange]

Bob had a sort of roll over program on combines, company pulled the plug, and he had year old combines he needed new price out of. Case pulled the plug in 1969, but he still had parts and service, his mechanic Mel was top notch. Dell Hanson was a salesman for Case Power and Equip. in Cedar Rapids for a few years, then went back to Vinton and bought the buisness. Knew Bob, Dell, and Mel for many years.

 

[Don Rudolph]

Always nice to hear of fond memories of good people. Reminds me of our local AC/NH dealer (and our old Case dealer). Don

Do you have D & K Implement in Hebron, Indiana?

 

[flatpkr]

Lots of Orchard tractors in that part of Michigan mainly because of the cherry orchards. I worked in an orchard near Kingsley when I was a kid and the guy had a DO. I liked to hear it run at idle, really ran slow.
