I enjoyed your pics. Ive not seen a JD sheller of that size before, it was 98% Minneapolis Moline sheller used around here.
Always enjoyed shelling, we would do it in August mostly, as it was feed for the cattle, didnt want to shell until we were fairly sure and close to a new crop. Corncrib held 4000 bu if you really stuffed it, we often did around 2500-3000 bu in it and shelled out 1000-1500 bu in a two day period. In the end my wife and I shelled a couple years, about 3000 bu, it was a lot more tiring filling the crib by myself than shelling it between my wife, me, and a friend of hers that enjoyed the work too. Could always see the end of it coming so it went well.
Now a days harvest has to go so fast, and yields have gone up, I can only pick a couple wagons of ear corn. Miss the shelling. And it made good feed.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
