Chasin Rust took a road trip to the Voris Brothers Farm on Memorial Day for the Annual "Voris Family Fish Fry!" We can't share the fish with you, but you can take a ride through their collection of Allis Chalmers (and a nice mix of others thrown in) tractors and equipment. Larry Voris served as president for the National Early Day Gas Engine & Tractor Association. Larry and his brother, Dean, have also served as President of Branch 16 and both were inducted into the National Early Day Gas Engine & Tractor Association's Hall of Fame! Safe to say that all three brothers, Jerry included, have a bit of orange blood in their veins. All three are involved with our annual Steam-O-Rama held in SWMO 10 days after Labor Day. Enjoy this video - see the link in the comments.
