Lee: Nat is right, these are like looking for a needle in a haystack, and if you do find one it will be big bucks.

Now if original doesn't matter and you just want to do some planting, here is what I have done. I have changed two 3 point corn planters, one IH and one Deere to single point fast hitch planters. The guy I bought the Deere from claims it works better on my 130 than it did as a 3 point machine. Two suggestions I'd give you for a single row planter are IH 185 units or Deere 71 units. I have a single point fast hitch tool bar 6 feet long. I am currently looking for three of these units. With that I will be able to plant one row, 2 rows most any width or 3 - 30" rows. These newer units will have much greater variety of seeds that can be handled, and much more accurate. Personally I will give the edge to the Deere 71, mainly because there are more of them around, thus more parts if needed.
