Massey 92 Streamliner

Here are the pics 1206 requested.

Cool! You need to get that one operational again. Like the low air screen. Did Cockshutt make a similar machine?

We got in at the dealership a super 92 with a dsl engine in 1968,,, sure seems to me it was low like this one,, it was a trade in from a custom cutter
cnt

I had 4 super 92's and one 82 over the years, great machines, wish I had kept the last one just for shows and parades.

Thanks for the pictures...It looks like it has sat out for
most of its life..I see that it has a 265 in it..Will it be coming
to your place? I can't remember a single 92 being in my area
as they were just too big...

It is kind of mine. The combine and the farm it sits on belongs to a cousin of ours and the farm borders our farm. He doesn't farm but leases it out to a neighbor. Comes out every fall to hunt and just to get out of the city. Over the years he has let us have some other things on the farm like his fathers JD 820. The combine is a rusty beauty so it will just sit were it is. I've already robbed a few parts off of it to keep my 90s running.

Its too far gone. I've been down that road before restoring a combine in this type of condition and its just too much work. Its much better as a parts machine. Cockshutt and Massey combines until the 60s were identical design wise.

That was the very machine we had. I always thought it was a super 92 but remembered vividly that it was a Massey Harris. I think the supers
were Fergusons. That part always puzzled me. Now it makes sense. Ours had a cab on it but you could still read the Massey Harris written at
the bottom front of the drivers platform and it had the guard bars still in it in the cab. None of the pictures I have of it give enough away to tell. It
was a beautiful machine that had such a destinctive bark from that straight six in heavy crop. I can still hear her driving away from me with that
exhaust that ran on top of the radiator ducting and had a slightly curved pipe piece on it.

The long radiator cleaner was cool looking but caused problems in a wind. If the chaf would swirl on the downwind side it couldn't keep it off
and it would start getting hot. As I remember it had an apparatus inside that beat back and forth to keep chaff off. I remember that when I was
about 10 we took it off and put on a "whirlybird" from a Gleaner and ended that problem. It sure did look empty in that side without that long
radiator contraption. I did think the fact that it spun without a belt or anything was pretty cool. The air cleaner piping ran through that old duct
work but didn't extend up high. That caused it to get plugged with chaff easy as well. Our solution was to tie a gunny sack on the precleaner
and then shake that sack every time we unloaded the bin.

I still remember hauling old five gallon Skelly oil cans full of gas up to the back platform/gas tank. When we cut all day just about dinner time we
would bring four of those out so we could finish the night. That seemed so far up there back then. I'd give my right arm to have a 92 of some
sort to play with in some of my crops. I only planted 40 acres of milo this year - I could use one for that.
