Hey guys, I've posted a few times on the Massey Ferguson forum, but I was surfing the web looking for links to 1600 IH Loadstars when all of a sudden I saw a link to the good ol' YT web site regarding 1600's, so I thought I'd jump over here and post this info. I have a '70 1600 that I am parting out. The cab, fenders, and doors are all rusted out. About the only good sheet metal left is the left & right hood, the piece that runs between them that they are hinged to, the grill surround & grill, the cowl and the dash. I believe all the gauges are original and I'm guessing they still work. I know the gas gauge was working when it was parked. I think there were a couple more that worked, and some just weren't connected. I have the complete set of glass, all in good condition with no cracks or chips. It has a 345 eng. that ran fine when I parked it. It has not been started in the last 2 years. The only problems I am aware of in the engine is that there are 2 or 3 exhaust studs broke of on the right head so it is a little noisier than it should be, and there was a small oil leak at the back of the block which I think might be the plug behind the cam. It has a Clark 5 spd. trans w/pto that drives the hyd. pump for the dump bed. I know for sure that the rear end was replaced before I bought the truck, and now it only has a single speed rear axle. I think it is a Eaton. The dump bed is rusted out and will be scraped along with the cab and doors. Dump hoist works, but I may keep that for a dump trailer I'm planning. Not sure yet. Four almost new mud & snow treads on rear. Front tires are ok. Also have three spare tires (2 of them already mounted). Would prefer to sell the entire chassis as a unit if possible. If anyone is interested or have questions, send me an email .

Today's Featured Article - The Revival of a John Deere Combine - by The Red, John Fritz. For several years I had been driving by a farm house on the west side of Indianapolis that had a John Deere combine parked in high weeds in a lot behind the house. The gentleman no longer farmed because the entire area was developed with housing and light industry. I had stopped several times and knocked on the door but no one would answer. My curiosity was up and I wanted to contact the owner. I wanted to see what he planned to do with the combine.
