You didn't need to bring up that subject. One of our lifetime members owned that little jewel. When he passed on his wife sold it back to the original owners grandson for what was paid for it. He was asking $2500.00 for it years ago, it has been setting outside rotting down every sense. You wouldn't happen to have a shed out back where I could drop something off in the middle of the night and store it would you? On to a better subject. 1206SWMO. Thanks for the offer. So far I have the following combines lined up. Minneapolis Moline Uni-Harvestor with - Combine, 2 row corn picker, sheller, 1 row forage cutter, inline baler (not a harvesting item but close). 1965 John Deere 55. 1969 John Deere 105. 1963 John Deere 55 no cab. John Deere 45 with 2 row corn head. These 4 machines are very nice. 7ft. Massey Clipper fully restored. Pull Gleaner, very nice, one family owned. Minneapolis Threshing Machine, I have an original poster for a demonstration day for this thresher. 5 ft. Allis Chalmers All Crop, has cut wheat every year. Oliver 40 with cab. Oliver 431. 1969 G Gleaner Diesel. 1970 G Gleaner Gas. 1952 A Gleaner. 2 Minneapolis Moline Pull Corn Pickers. Anything to do with bringing in the crop will be featured. I have started on this early in an effort to get everyone thinking about it. I have finally gotten a few K&O members interested in collecting implements so we can have a plow day. It took 3 or 4 years to get even a few of them interested. We plow next to the highway and always get a lot of people stopping by just to see what is going on. Most of them have never seen a plow. We will be cutting wheat on this field with the Oliver 40 this year so I hope it will get a few more spectators.
