Pekin, IL. dealer in 1968?

iluvcase · May 23, 2015

I just aquired a new to me Case tractor and the build card tells me that it was shipped to a dealer in Pekin, IL. in 1968. I am wondering if anyone would know the name of this dealer and if they are still in business today? Thank you for your help.....Paul

There are no tractor dealers left in Pekin. My wife, who grow up in Pekin, thinks the dealerships name was Depperts. She says there were only 2 dealerships there in that era. One was a IH dealer east of Pekin on Rt. 9. The other was Depperts which was downtown near the bridge.

i believe that dealer was Johnson implement. we had bought a 47 la case there in about 1958 and I know they were still in business around 1970 but they did go out of business in the early 70;s.they were on the south edge of pekin on rt. 29 beside a A+W rootbeer stand. hope this helps answer your question.
