Early Days Gas Engines

Heritage Horsepower: A Celebration of Vintage Engines & Tractors

The raucous cacophony of roaring, hissing and steaming infernal machines at the Pacific Coast Dream Machines Show is brought to you by the Early Days Gas Engine and Tractor Association. Their fascinating array of flywheel engines are enough to power old-fashioned washing machines, lawn mowers, and an entire Lilliputian factory.

The Early Days Gas Engine & Tractor Association began in 1956 in the midwest. The organization was formed to promote the collection, restoration, preservation and exhibition of gasoline and oil engines, gas and steam tractors, power driven farm machinery and other related equipment of historical value. Today there are more than 50 branches with about 6,000 members.
