Nothing wrong with a 7045 Allis Chalmers. Extremely well built, most parts are available. A 7045 is a black belly, so the cab is better to get in and out of than a maroon belly. Quiet when new. Cab kits and seals are available from FEHR. Full kit is $570.
6600 combine. The Horror. The potty filters work too well here, so I can't swear like I'd like. Great until you have to work on them, then you'll curse them. They do a good job though. They don't break any more often than anything else, but when they do. I would not consider the cab quiet, but it may have A/C. Have fun working on the primary counter shaft. Black from head to toe when you're done changing those bearings. Have fun working on the cylinder with the damn feeder house in the way. Or lying on the sac ripping walkers while working on the beater. And the way belts are behind belts. Ingenious guy that designed that. Like I said they're a good combine, but an absolute bear to work on. If they were any color but JD green, people would curse them up and down as being the worst designed combine to ever hit the market.
You'd be better served with something like a International 1420. Has a rotor like a proper combine should. Engine where it should be. Fairly quiet cab due simply to where it is in relation to the engine. So easy to work on, very well designed. Don't be phased by the red paint. It really is a better combine.
I can't stress enough how much a 6600 combine sucks. And parts availability isn't as great as everything thinks it would be on the 6600. There are enough parts that are NLA.
You'd be really well off with something like a 1460. They have a ton in common with combines that were made up till about 10 years ago, so parts are super easy to come by, with a TON of great aftermarket parts available.
Nothing wrong with the 7000 planter. One of the best planters ever built. Have someone with some knowledge look at the condition of the wear parts. They can get expensive in a hurry if they need a full rebuild. It'd be nothing to throw $3000 in parts if it's in need of a rebuild or partial rebuild.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
