Case Chisel Plow??

Hey guys,
at an online auction an 8-shank chisel plow is being sold...it is listed as a Case and the logo in the picture indicates it is a case but I cant find any supporting documentation to find if Case made an 8 shank chisel and what it would be valued at.
Any thoughts? Did they make one? value? Condition?

Glencoe made chisels in the time frame that used that logo, but that doesn't look like one made by Case or Glencoe. Can't find one like it in my lit. The trips aren't Case or Glencoe either. Someone may have put it together and painted it as it doesn't look like it has been used. Doesn't make it a bad chisel..maybe $450 and up.
 
Looks possibly like a Brady. It's been a spell since I've seen one, but does look similar. They were orange and used a gauge wheel similar to those.

How did your dad like his?

It did the job. At the time he had a IH 55 mounted chisel that was an 11-shank and the Bush Hog that I think was a 10-shank. I pulled the IH in ground that was going to soybeans. Dad always ran the Bush Hog in ground that was destined for corn, as it had an added Anhydrous setup to it and a nurse tank was pulled behind it. The hitch on the Bush Hog had been beefed up a bit.

After one wet spring when he couldn't get his corn in and had to switch to beans and his nitrogen fed one of the nicest weed crops in history until mid-June, he parked the Bush Hog and went back to sidedressing nitrogen.

Case was buying tools from other manufacturers to sell under the Case brand during the late 1970's. That looks like a Brillion to me. I am sure Adirondack Case Guy could tell in a second as to who made it.
 
Bush Hog/StanHoist I've seen a few Case chisels from the 70s and they were Landoll products, which have a distinctive plate construction on the hitch mast.
 
Steve,
Case offered the model M5600 mounted chisel built by Glenco for Case. The question I have about the one in the pic., is that Glenco used plates and 4 bolts to secure the spring trip brackets, and in the pic., U bolts are present. Landoll also built the model 1800 3 bar, and 1805 2 bar mtd chisels, but they had welded box beam frames. The Glenco units had odd number of shanks, as well as the Landoll 1805. The smallest 1800 Landoll was a 10 shank unit. Bush Hog never built any tillage equipment for Case, and I am thinking that that one is NOT a Case badged chisel plow. Paint and decal on perhaps a Bush Hog unit.

Loren, I just stumbled across a brochure for a Case 400 chisel from 1972 on eBay . . . shows a channel frame. Doesn't list an 8 shank though, just a 7 base, 10 base, and 13 base.
 
Dad went up to the auction yard this morning to check out these again, with a finer eye as we hadn't considered these until after we were there last time....
could see a tag on them which looked like it said Bush Hog...so consensus here is probably right...
amazing how much knowledge is present on this forum.
Auctioneer said our MF 1080 might struggle with this...our Landini 105 should do all right...might get them anyway and if we want to use the MF with them, just take out a bottom or two...we'll see...all depends on the market around here

thanks again for the info!
 
It is a Bush Hog. I have the same one here. I pull it at 6.5mph with a Case 970(90 hp), set to 8" plus a little on the gauge wheels.

The long shanks give good trash clearance. Look for cracks in the castings where the shanks ride over them in the back.
