Default Re: Allison V12 on ebay

If you want to see Allison engines, stop by Fantasy of Flight in Polk City, FL on I 4 sometime. Kermit Weeks owns F of F and had 50 plus brand new Allison engines sitting on original pallets in his engine storage area. He outbid a bunch of racers and tractor pullers at an auction that Les Staudacher had in Bay City, Michigan a number of years ago. Les was a famous boat builder (Miss Budweiser and others) and bought them as military surplus after WWII.

Kermit will only sell them to individuals that are restoring WWII planes such as the early P51 Mustang, etc.
