I ended up buying 3 out of Kentucky and Pennsylvania. IIFFF your going to find one it's going to be in the eastern states. I ended up buying 3 to find enough functional parts to make 1 complete with fertilizer and one that doesn't. That one is for sale. The 3rd is on a pallet of parts.
If you think your going to find one complete, good luck, and get your check book out. That was my original expectation. I couldn't find one. My work includes traveling the country in a tractor trailer so I have lots of miles and lots of looking.
After all the looking and talking to the guys who worked them I've come to the opinion that not a lot were made. Remember farms where growing and planters where getting bigger. The small guy couldn't afford new so a lot of the old horse drawn planters got converted. The big guys were buying 4 row planters.
Back to being complete, I found NO split row fertilizer bottoms usable. I found a set of single row boots. I ended up finding some disc openers that work well. If the planter/fertilizer was not cleaned up after use the fertilizer system rotted everything down junk. Found several of those.
Fertilizer attachments, row markers, rubber wheel inserts where all options and makes those components that much harder to find.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
