After we got done with the spraying this morning we finished up wheat for the year. We harvested about 60 acres with a IH 403 and JD 45. We spread it out over 4 days. These pics were this afternoon finishing up the last 10-12 acres out of 40 we did for a neighbor. With two combine operators a truck driver and a guy on the grain cart we can harvest about 4 acres per hour, if everything holds together! It was hot and dirty but the wheat was good and we got done before it rained. We will cut about 20 acres of oats in a week or so. Maybe I will remember to take my camera and get some pics from the seat. bill
Here they come. 60 acres and no serious down time. The biggest breakdown was I had the rivets come loose in the sickle head wednesday evening.

The second truck, 1949 F4 ford. We are a full service custom harvest outfit. Those two trucks hauled every bushel off of 40 acres to a bin a couple miles away. Truck driver said it was kinda hot running the trucks in the heat the last couple of days.

Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
