..And this little SP-100 went to Ireland

Received a call from Ireland from a collector who shipped a SP-100 in a shipping container from Nebraska to Ireland to add to his collection of farm equipment.  Seems there was only one SP-100 that ever made it to Ireland prior and it had since been scrapped.  Hope to have more info and pics of the restoration in the coming months…

Another trailer technique

Jim Mills of Georgetown TX took up took Mike Wikes offer of a free 66 combine as listed in the registry and traveled to MO to pick it up. He handled the over width of the combine wheel base buy adding a fixed dolley wheel inside the right axle. This gave him a new narrower wheel base to permit the combine to be rolled up the trailer.

Corn Head 66 in Action

Jim Mills of Georgetown TX was kind enough to send video from the 50 Years of Ag Progress show in Rantoul IL. Shown  is video of a rare 66 corn head all-crop doing its thing. The owner and operator shown is well known AC collector Marion Klutzke of West Lafayette, Indiana.  Be aware this is a large file.
