Would any one know how rare a Massey Harris 80 rice special is in Australia and how rare or common they are in america? how hard is it to get parts for these headers? and what engine is in the header?

A guy who's wife had family in Columbia told me that the farmers in South America had bought a lot of used Massey Rice Special combines in the U.S. because they can't afford new combines in S.A.

Machinery jockeys are always looking for what equipment is in demand in South America.

I would guess that the engine is a Chrysler Industrial.

It would likely have the smaller version of the Chrysler inline
six that drove the "big boys". I think it was a 265 in our super
92. Wonderful engine that had a great throaty sound to it. It
flooded easy on startup, though.
