Today I was helping a friend clean out an old shed he got, in which I was in what must have been the back room where we threw away a lot of junk, iron, wood, and some nasty old cardboard as well. I was digging underneath a 4 foot deep shelving unit left in there when I came across a few treasures. I found an NOS 303 combine Sieve Assembly Extension (part #155646C91). Believe it or not, the tag was still on it. Next, I came across an NOS front lower bolster for an M thru 450 (part #6719DDX), and lastly, an NOS belt pulley (12" diameter by 8.5" wide part #358597R92) for an M thru 660. I haven't cleaned them up yet because of time, but I think after I get the 3 inches of dust off of them, they will all be nice. Yes, the tags are still on them and all 3 items are in great shape. Wow, was I rather shocked to come across those. Anyway, we got to asking and found out that building was an IH dealer and closed its doors some years ago and it had only been used for storage for the past 20 years or so, nothing spectacular. So, I got the three items as my payment for helping my friend, not that I cared because friends help and never asked to get paid, but I'll tell ya, it sure was nice. Now the problem, what to do with them??? LOL Well I could keep them, could sell them, or just hold on to them until the summer convention. What do you gentlmen think? Thanks and I am not trying to brag, just a little excited for finally getting lucky.

Show Coverage: Fair Weather Tractor - by Dave M.. No, Fair Weather isn't some rare brand. It's the kind you can't leave out in the rain. Here's how it happened. I had been casually looking for a tractor for weeks. I saw a few 9N's, but they had even fewer amenities than the 8N my Grandpa bought new in '52 with a Dearborn loader. That was 10 years before I was born, so I grew up thinking that 8N was the world's best tractor. Grandpa had greenhouses, with over half an acre under glass, and that 8N did almost everything. It was the only
