International model 35 hay rake

TLD NC · Sep 3, 2010

I am looking at an International 35 hay rake with off-set rear wheels and two crank handles for raising and lowering the basket.

What are the good and bad things about these rakes?

Are parts still available?

Thanks for all your help,

Thomas

My last experience with a #35 was when I was about 3 years old, but just looking at one compared to a NewHolland 258 rake, it's not built as heavily.

I do know the Dad's experience with the one he borrowed from a neighbor farmer back in the late 1970's was enough to get him to spend the extra $$$ on a NewHolland 258. He still has that 258 rake.

I think the 35 was one of the best rakes ever built, when taken care of, it should last a lifetime.
