Mankato Implement just got a 55 in on trade. I went to check it out because it has a quick tach feeder house and a 343 corn head.
Took some pictures in case anybody in the area is looking for something like this. It comes with the 343 head and 12 foot(?) bean head. Have heard that they are asking $2500 for the whole package. It has no tach so cant tell how many hours on it, by the way the sprockets look it doesn't have many. Has a chopper, but no drive belt. Not sure of the year, the serial number is 81059. What year did they change engines? Mine is a '69 and has a 303, this one has a different engine. The exhaust exits the top of the engine hood and air cleaner is mounted on the left side. Lots of small differences between the years. Also noticed the unloading auger is real short, was there an optional long auger?
