612 Chopper

Brendon Warren · Apr 26, 2015

I dragged this gem out of the weeds today. I bought it probably 10 years ago. I used it once to now a drag strip to grass drag snowmobiles for a buddy. Anybody have any experience with one? Does anyone want it to put behind their old ford tractor? I think its basically a novelty item at this point. No small dairies here except Amish.

Didn't think Ford had a chopper. Probably was built by someone else.

Where are you located at? I brought home a red 605 chopper a couple weeks ago. I'm always interested in old ford implements.

I'm in Northern New York. I'd give someone a sweet deal on it if I thought they'd do something with it.

Dang it!!! Im in central Missouri. I would love to have it and play with it behind one of our 6000's. Hopefully somebody will take it off your hands and do something with it.

That's too bad. I've seen your picker pics. Wicked cool. I even know where the time are to cut corn with it. I drug it out to borrow the hub so I can get a ford field cultivator home that I bought yesterday.

Bought one new in 1964/65. We also had the pick-up head and the 2 row corn head as well. Pulled it with my '63 Super Dexta. Corn head was very unique. No gathering chains,just formed metal that directed the corn stalks to special, short knife guards. All heads worked well , just not a custom work machine. In those days, we had an 18 head dairy operation. Much simpler times.
