Massey Harris SP 35 Combine

I just bought another one for $700 at a sale and it looks like the one below. I saw one sell on eBay $2000 with a cab, spare tires and parts, spare table, and both a 2 row corn head and an 8ft table, but it was also a Super 35. Neither mine nor the one from eBay ran, but both were in great shape and required little to get running. Where are you located? Any chance of a picture of two? Do you have any attachments for it like a straw spreader or chopper?

(quoted from post at 00:24:20 01/02/09) Depends on if you're buying or selling. What's the condition?
Well Tom, I'm not really selling or buying, my great grandpa bought it new and i don't really know how much its worth. It isnt in two bad of condition, i know it has been rolled over a few times, but you can hardly tell it. It needs paint but it isnt rusted through hardly at all. It runs and i have combined about an acre of wheat with it this year.
 
I didnt know that they had cabs? Thanks for the info and yes i do have a bunch of pictures i can take if you tell me what you want, but i dont have a straw spreader or chopper. What are the size of the back rims?
 
The back rims are supposed to be 3x15 for 4.00-15 tires. My drive rims on the one in the picture look different because they widened them out and filled them with fluid for hill country. It's nice to know that I'm not the only nut who still uses one. I think it is neat to have a combine that fits on a car trailer and hauls very easy. Where are you located?

Thanks for the pictures. Sorry,I would rather not give out the info of where i live. Do you know how many of these combines were built? Are they rare or not?
 
Did you say you would like some pictures? If so, of what on the combine? Did they make a corn header and cab for the combine?
 
I was just curious as to what part of the country you are in. It is not too easy to find one in southern WI where I live, they all seem to be in MO, TN, and southern IL. I just wanted a picture of yours one, for my collection, and two, just because a lot of us on here really enjoy seeing pictures of other peoples machines. I was by no means asking for your address, or even town, just wondering where you are in the world. I have some friends who are MH nuts and spend a lot of time searching for new toys with our neighbors to the north. I don't really know how many were made, and I have never ran across any hard production data either. Mine is a 1958. I know they made them until 1964. I do know with how many I've found over the years either in barns or with collectors, there are quite a few still around. You could put a #20 or #22 corn head on them. The one on eBay with the cab looked like it could have been home made, but, in the times Farm & Fleet, TSC, and Central Tractor and the other tractor parts guys offered a bunch of different universal cabs to fit all kinds of stuff.

Hey thanks for the help. it has helped me out a lot. i dont think i can get you a picture, because i have seemed to have lost my camera! Sorry,but if i find it I will get a pic or two
 
Tom, could you tell me how much a restored massey 35 combine is worth which runs good,has a good paint job,and decent tires is worth? It would really help me out if you could reply back.
 
Good runner, good paint and tires, depends on how much other restoration is done. Should be able to find one in out of the field condition for 800-1200, restored should be worth maybe twice that.
 
Thanks, do you know how many were built? And do you know how hard a corn head is to find and how much a corn head is worth?
 
Don't know much about them, I'm actually more of an IH guy. I think cornheads are a little scarce, but they're out there
 
I know of one corn head sitting on a dealer lot right now for $495. I think they are worth more of the $7-800 range in working condition if they are with the combine. They used a special feeder house different from the others.
 
Hello my name is Louis I am a young farmer from ct I saw that you were responding to a post about massey 35 combines I am looking for one pretty bad here in ct there are a lot of shade tobacco farms, it is a variety that is grown under netting held up by poles and wires every few years they don't grow a crop they just seed it down to rye or wheat they call it resting my grandfather used to combine under the wires with a sp35 it was short enough to go under it has long been a thing of the past until now with high cost of grains and a good straw market I would like to start it up please let me know if you know anyone that would part with one to a good home thanks 860-803-0675 Louis
