I have a customer who plants wide rows who wants me to combine his corn for him next year, maybe 20 acres maximum, elderly gentleman still plants with horses and cultivates, I am happy to do it for him if it keeps him out in the field however I'm setup on 30in rows. I run a 6620 Titan II and have a nice gleaner E for playing. I've tracked down a gleaner E3 parts combine with a 2 row wide head on it that I can probably buy for scrap price or less, it's been outside for a long time, going to be a lot of work to get drug home. Same guy has an f2 with a black 4 row wide on it that combined about 5 years ago but is also outside obviously way overkill for 20 acres or so. Or I could find a 444 cornhead for the 6620. I'm wondering how many upgrades that the e3 has that might be worth having for my e or how many parts even interchange? How big of a headache might I be asking for to get that head functioning after sitting out so long? There is virtually no market for a gleaner in this area as there is little to know dealer support so I could probably buy the f2 for scrap price or less also. What do the e3 and f2 weight so i can come up with a value? Also a side question how hard would it be to find belts for a factory pickup head for the e3? Thoughts or opinions appreciated. Thanks in advance!
