I stopped by a guy's place on Friday. Offered me a IH 2M-HD mounted picker for free (only has picked 500 total acres) along with a parts IH 2-MH picker (custom picked approx. 5000 acres in its time (it's wore out, lol)), and lock, stock and barrel picker parts which he doesn't need anymore. Took the deal. Was happy he didn't have to scrap them. "Everything is going to be sold, given away, or scrapped..." he was telling me about a conversation he had with his brother. I therefore jumped at an IH 76 combine, with a scourkleen, not a dent or scratch on it, complete, with a brand new and I mean brand new canvas. He had it rolled up in a room in the upstairs of his shed, and unveiled it to me. Told me the canvas costed him between 200-250 bucks, and would give me the combine for 200. I have been looking for the right pull type IH for a long time. Sure. Why not? Then he had an IH 46 baler, ol beast, but I thought you know I'm getting a heck of a set up for my Super M's, why not? 50 bucks and let it go. Complete, little rusty, but mine. :) Am I nuts? I look at it this way: I walked away with 3 working implements and a parts implement, all 50's-60's era, for 250. I couldn't turn it down. Am I nuts? I know I'm addicted to red farm equipment, but am I nuts? Thanks for your moral support.
