The more that pic gets posted, the more I keep asking myself who it is that's behind the goggles. It sure as heck ain't Barney!! Looks female to me.

Here's a shot of Barney on the motorcycle just before they take off. This came from Youtube and was the best quality I could find offhand.

Look at the face, the nose, even the posture. That's not Barney!
 
Kcm sounds like a conspiracy in Mayberry to me !!
I?ve never looked that close I?ve only seen the
original episode a few times
 
Old dodge could stand to be a couple feet longer in the wheelbase to lengthen the bed. Taht was a common way to haul them back then. Drive them on and set to go. The heads were only about 12 feet then. I worked for a guy in KS that was from WY originally told about loading Deere combines like that. His brother and him would all go like that with about 3or 4 machines.
 
In my area it was common for crawler tractors to take rides on
flatbed trucks. Self propelled combines were often towed
backwards between jobs.
 
That is the one Len Holo restored and did a "harvest run" with. On the truck door it says "Custom Harvest Tribute". There is a bunch of stuff on the internet about that. That's a 21A like the 500 that Massey Harris got permission to build during WW 2 when there were restrictions on material needed for war vehicles. That truck and combine were at the LSPPA show some years ago.

Len Holo was from Loma, ND and last I knew he lived in WI east of the Twin Cities.
 
I thought the Same thing. Guess barney couldn't handle a bike or the movie company said we need a professional driver.
