Joe D.That's a trip well worth taking, i've been twice and want to go again soon. They've got tons of stuff to look at, cars, trucks, tractors, antiques, models, books, gift shop, and more. It was very inexpensive I thought- I think it was $8 for an adult, but i'm not sure, and it might have gone up some by now. And they don't mind if you take pictures.

other dog Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 It'll be just north of the I-85 split on 95 then- South Park Blvd. Just make a left at the end of the ramp, go back over 95, bear around to the right, it'll be a little ways up on the left. Big gray building, there's an Oliver or John Deere at the south end of the building and a Farmall M up at the other end. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Brocky Posted March 23, 2014 Share Posted March 23, 2014 JoeLeon and I spent all Sunday afternoon in there on the way home from Lititz last year. Could have spent ALL DAY!!! Coming north the first exit north of the 85-95 junction on the west side frontage road of 95. He has a lot of great trucks from Dr. Bill's collection and Diamond T's from Del DeYoung's auction.

Joe Ditchkus Posted March 23, 2014 Author Share Posted March 23, 2014 I met Dr. Bill Comcovitch at Syracuse ATHS Show. Nice man as everyone said about him. He encouraged anyone to climb in and check out his trucks. Joe D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe Ditchkus Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 I spent the day Sunday at the Museum. It was well worth it. About 200 Tractors of various makes and 35-40 Trucks mostly Class 8 everything restored. I recomment it to anyone in Richmond,Virginia area to stop by. I had a nice chat with one of the employees also.Joe D. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted April 1, 2014 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The Mack and Freightliner salesman that comes by the shop periodically is one of the brothers that owns Abilene Trucking and the museum and the farm and who knows what else, and he said they have at least one model of every kind of tractor ever made. I can believe it too. They had several kinds that i'd never even heard of before. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.
