White took them over and they had a plant as said earlier in Canton Ohio. I think someone(s?) that worked for White bought the plant in the late 70's or early 80's. I have a friend who worked in the test lab lab in the mid late 80's. They did not have an approved EPA emissions test cell and subsequntly certified at South West Research Labs, which can be very expensive. They were selling repower engines to the military which at the time was the only good source of income. When this ran out, I believe they were looking at natural gas/propane to carry the company. When he was there, they scraped most if not all of the old stuff. They were obviously in financial trouble and he left. I suspect they are now only history.
