I have a 76 and an 82, and I know a lot about the 76 but so-so on the 64. First of all, it is difficult to find a 76. Second of all, it is damn near impossible to find a 64. I have seen two in my entire life, one was at a county fair and the other is sitting in a weedpatch near my girlfriend's house. I'd love to own one someday.
The 76 and 64 are almost identical, I don't know what the differences really were, can someone help me on that? But I'm planning on picking up this 64 for parts, either for someone (like you!) who might need 64 parts or myself because I know many parts between the 76 and 64 are interchangeable. The canvas is not nice in beans, I did beans with my 76 this fall and it was a nightmare, the beans love to roll down between the canvas and the metal along the edges and drop into the pan, and then get bunched up between the roller and the canvas. I was using a brand new, unstretched canvas, too, so that didn't help things that I was always tightening. But what an unbelievably clean machine. I was more than flored. But when I bought the 82 after the 76 broke down, I knew in two rounds which machine I was going to use for beans and which one I was using for oats. I love my 76, I really do, but I don't know why the heck anyone in their right mind would continue running a 76 after running an 82. The thing is, I still call it my preferred combine!!! :-D :-D :-D (Looks good behind a Super M ;-) )
