Sure I'd be glad to get some close up pictures. It will be a month or so before I get home to work on it, so just send me an email so I wont forget about it.

The tractor does have a TA, live power and hydros. I assume someone painted it and decaled it wrong at some point, but it is a SMTA.

If any of you guys want the picker it will be cheap, as I think this machine might become a loader tractor, which leaves no room for the picker.

As for the operation of the picker:
It has a beater on the front driven by the front pulley on the crankshaft. The head height is adjusted with a hydraulic cylinder. The beater knocks out the seeds which are sucked out of the head by two big fans driven by the belt pulley on the right side of the tractor. The fans blow the seed into the four bags hanging on the back of the tractor. This machine has not picked grass for about five years. The man now has a 560 diesel with a picker. I understand that this picker was put together from a wide variety of parts by a machine shop here in Laredo, TX.

I found this machine while riding around one weekend. I work here in Laredo for the enemy John Deere on the test site.
