Hi all. I just bought an old AC rotobaler and combine to fiddle around with. The combine was gonna be junked, so I HAD to save it. :) Anyway, what can you guys tell me about it, and, embarassing as it is to ask, what kinds of things did they harvest with them? I've not had anything to do with combines...ever.
Can you guys guess at the year of the combine and the baler from the picture?
Thanks again for all your help and great stories/information.

The combine is a model 60- the unloading auger is in front of the grain tank, not on the side. Dad bought his new in "48, the Roto-Baler in "49. Called the All Crop because the op manual lists settings for over 100 crops that it can harvest.

The first of the 66 models used the same tank as the later 60's with the auger in the bottom of the tank. The later 66's used the side unload auger as the 72. And the first series 60 did not have an unloading auger but used the clean grain evelator to unload. The 66 came about the same tine as the CA tractor as in their advertising that is the tractor they showed with the 66 combine.

I cant see the ground wheel in the picture. If spoke type wheel from about 1940 to 1950, disc wheel later to about 53, later combines were the 66 with the 6 bat real and a widened out platform. And yes there were adjustments, many many and I can't say they were slow, Had 3 of them and the best clover seed machine ever made. With our limited croping area we cut wheat, oats soybeans, red clover and timothy. There was a 2 row corn head made that fit them as well.

Sometime in the 1940s when I was a small boy a neighbor custom combined with a AC sacker combine and a M farmall, no hydraulics. It was a thrill to me to ride on the combine with the guy sacking.

Hey guys, wish I had some kind of proof, but I think the All-Crop was built much earlier than the fifties. Grandfather had one he claimed to have acquired during WWII along with a new SC Case when these were supposedly limited in supply. I'm sure some one on the AC board could give us a real answer. When I grew up in the early 50's it had been around awhile.

Dunno,

In this country, all you saw were threshing machines up until about '52 or '53.

Its a 60 All Crop. The four bat reel and strait sided header give it away. I have had a 60 two 66's and a 72. Only used one of the 66's and it works great. Easy to use and quite fun, but slow!! Got any questions please feel free to ask. My favorite combine.

Both those machine where made to be run by the small AC tractors. I know when I still had a rotobaler I used an Allis B to pull it and if I remember right you could pull that #60 combine with one als but as others have said they are slow and where also called all crop combines because they would harvest almost any grain

All-Crop 60; early to mid fifties. Small capacity and very slow.

However, in their day they were the Queen. Every farmer had one.

Combine is either an AC 60 or 66 can't tell for sure from the picture. Not real sure of production years but somewhere mid 50's to mid 60's. They were made to do a lot of different crops - any small grain, hay seed, even beans. They were a good combine for their time. Some of us are still using one.

Thanks for all the replies. To use the combine, is there an adjustment to accommodate all the different sized grains?
