We also picked all our corn on the ear when I was growing up. When I was younger Dad had a John Deere 200 picker. By the time I was old enough to help he had traded it for an IH 2-PR. He had that till they stopped picking ear corn. Dad usually ran it. My job was to haul the wagons to the crib and unload them. I loved that job! Corn picking was my favorite part of harvest!
A custom operator with a truck mounted sheller would come and shell the corn that Dad sold. The rest was ground for cattle feed.

Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
