[DeTomaso] One Big Engine

[Dave Doddek]

One little unknown fact.  The first of these large engines made back in the
1970 were made by Allis Chalmers.  In fact at one time, Allis Chalmers made
more Power generation equipment than tractors.  Allis Chalmers privided all
the turbines, generators, switch gear, and transformers for the Hoover dam.
They also had a functional Fuel Cell tractor in 1958.

Too bad AC didnt start making sports cars like Lambo did.  They were a very
inovative company.  If they did, the USA could of had the worlds top Sports
car.
