This may not be the right forum, but this is where I enjoy spending time. There's an ALL color antique tractor show at the Berrien County Youth Fair grounds at Berrien Springs, Michigan (20 miles north of South Bend, Indiana) from June 29 �July 1, 2006. There will be over 1000 tractors on display. (bcyf.org)
Yours truly will be there everyday. I have six Case tractors plus a Case dozer and a Case backhoe. Unfortunately, none are show ready. My only show ready tractor is a 1951 two-cylinder John Deere model R diesel, and that will be at the Michiana Two-Cylinder Club exhibit. Having this green tractor is an interesting story.
While I like tractors of all colors, my heart belongs to Case. I taught school for thirty years and spent summers working for Case dealers. Now, I�m retired. I would enjoy meeting those with restored Case tractors, tractor lovers, and those who visit this website. If you have any problems or questions about Case (especially 30 series), I enjoy sharing my knowledge whether at the show or at this website. Roger (Mi).

Roger, I grew up in Benton Harbor and my family owned a business on Territorial Road. It sticks in my mind that there was a Case dealership in Milberg? (just east of benton Harbor) in the 50's - 60's.

Greetings Brian,

The dealership in Millberg was Gelder which sold Massy-Ferguson. The Case dealership (Prillwitz Farm Supply) was always on M140. Chuck Prillwitz (owner) got the property for the dealership from one of his brothers. Good hearing from you.

Roger,
I am putting together a database of Case dealers from the 40's, 50's, 60's, and 70's. Would you be willing to share the names and locations of the Case dealers you remember? Thank you! Don

Here's the one that was in my home town.

Heling Implement Co.
Beaver Dam, Wisconsin

Not sure when they started, but I know the place closed around 1990.

Don't know if this helps you Don, but I have a '63 Case 630 with a title that says it was bought new from: "Ulmer and Sons" of Etna Green, IN
I'm 28 years old on June 13th and have never seen this place so they must have went out of business before 1985.
Roger of Michigan, I'd love to go to the show as I'm about 60 miles away, but with farming and a second job, and a wedding to prepare for (mine - July 8th) I can't get away. Would've been nice to meet ya.

Case dealerships where I worked (all in Michigan): Prillwitz Farm Supply in Benton Harbor, Zelle Equipment Co. in Holt (Case Industrial dealer), Tractorland in Eau Claire. Zelle Equipment Co. is now a Case Power and Equipment (Case owned dealership). The other two are no longer in business. The nearest still in business CaseIH dealer is in Dowagiac. I've never worked there. One of the greatest compliments: The owner of Prillwitz Farm Supply said he would have stayed in business if he could have kept me as a mechanic. I had taken a teaching position 120 miles away near Holt.

Wow, some neat deja vu, Roger...I lived in St Joe for 3 years in the late 70's. In '78 I installed a computerized inventory system at Tractorland. The owner's name was Arnie, Ernie...either of those sound right?

Greetings Steve,

You're speaking of Arnie Rosenberg. He was a character. He took a 1370 to a plowing demonstration one time. The 1370 was so powerful when compared to the competition, he pulled out of the furrow and plowed around all of the other tractor with his plow still in the ground. Last I heard, he owned a small manufacturing company out east. Good hearing from you.

Roger, Did Mullders in Schoolcraft, MI sell Case at one time? I believe the dealer sticker that was on (came off somewhere) the 730 i've got Showed Mullders and had several lines on it but not the Ford that they sell now.

Greetings INCase,
Didn't get to Schoolcraft much, so I don't know about Mullders. Sometimes a dealership would take a trade-in and place their sticker on the tractor. Maybe I can discover something at the tractor show.

There was a Case dealer in Marshalltown Iowa on HWY US 30 just west of HWY IA 14 and then they moved about 1 mile further west in the early 70's. I think it was a company store. Dad needed to buy a new tractor in the fall of 1973 and he would have to wait 12 months for a IHC and 15 months for a JD. He bought a 1070 in mid Dec and had it delivered just before the first of the year, to make the tax deadline. The store closed when the merger to Case/IH happened. If I remember right 73 was the year of shortages from fertilizer to seed to fuel to new iron.
