Got the little D home

I finally got my little MM D Sheller home today. This little sheller has sat
in a shed for 31 years and had sunk all the way to axle. Despite rotten
tires and some places full of dirt, all she needs is a good clean up, oil,
and grease. Drags are good. Only one place that will need some work
and that is the out auger. It has rusted through. Here are some pics.
Anxious to run some corn with it. She'll look good with my B2.

We never shelled our corn, we ground it cob and all,but give me a quick over view of the differant size's of the Moline sheller
 
MM made different models over the years.
I believe the A, A2, and D were similar and rated in the 800 bushels per hour class.
The E, 1200, and 1210 were in the 1,000 to 1,200 bushels per hour class and the B and B2 were in the 1,500 bushels per hour class.

The A, A2, B and B2 were built before and just after WW2.
The D and E late 40's and '50's.
The 1200 in the late '50s and '60's.
The 1210 in late '60's and '70s.

Others may have better details.
 
I pulled mine out of the shed the other day where I had stored for 5 years. Getting it ready to take to the Osage Iowa steam show this weekend. Mine has the auger on top too, and the belts. An older one? in Hampton Iowa fair has chains vs belts, spoke wheels.
Mine is S/N 38407501.
From earlier forums I think it was made late 1950s, maybe 1960. Can anyone give me a good manufactured year? Have it hooked up now to my 1936 TC/MM JT with a ZA engine.
