Picking up this coil tine digger/cultivator/chisel tomorrow. I haven't seen the unit in person, so I don't know if there are any paint remnants or a serial tag. Looks kinda like a Deere 900 toolbar? Wheels don't look like Deere rims, but that's not always a good indicator as they may have been replaced. Maybe an Oliver or a MM? any way to straighten that bent coil shank it has? Measures about 7.5 feet wide.

Those were kind of dangerous to operate; when one of those coils flexed a bit too much it would break and send the shank flying and there was no way to know where it was going to come down - hopefully not on the operator.
 
in some ways it kind of looks like my old AC field cultivator.
this one was a snap coupler hookup, but someone along the way cut the snap coupler hitch off and welded up a 3 pt hitch hookup.

works good and those springs have saved it a time or two, they will really kick back when the shovel hits a rock or root. I like the way the shovels vibrate as they plow through the dirt kind of busting up the soil.
