Rich,
I'm assuming with the 4 row head that is on it it should scrap out for about 2k..
That price would not include the engine, which assuming it does in fact run well, would be pulled and sold outright, and the tires, which I would try to sell outright as well, seeing I'd be docked for them at the scrapyard.
I scrapped out 3 Massey's this year.. A 750, 760, and a 510 hydro.. They were all junk, the 760 was parted out to everything but the tin, engine, and trans/finals, the rest were just plain wore out rusted junk.. (plus they were all demo derby combines) The 510 is a bit smaller than a 815, and with all the things removed from it, and a grain table on it, it still brought in 1700..
I'll check out the serial number.. I'll probably go look it over Monday or Wednesday..
The reason I'm considering this machine is because I honestly CANNOT justify a rotor, or a -20 series Deere.. I had a -00 sereis Deere before, and I don't really care for them personally.. They're just not comfortable to operate, IMO. I farmed a few years ago, and I have decided to get back into farming, and found right around 40 acres to work. I have most of my equipment from before, but did not keep the combine I had. The derby and scrap guys have pretty well cleaned up all the "small" combines in our area, so when you do find one, they're sky high.. So far, I have this 815, or a Gleaner K.. both at the same money, and I'm venturing a guess that the K needs more work than the 815 (until I look at both closely) but I know the K corn head is shot (good friend of mine owns the K, he says it'll take 600-1000 to take it to the field, and I just don't see a K being worth that kinda cash)

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: How to Remove a Broken Bolt - by Staff. Another neat discussion from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. The discussion started out with the following post: "I have an aluminum steering gear housing with a bolt broken off in it. The bolt is about a 3/8" x 1 1/2" bolt. I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
