versatile 400, 40 years old, 1981. i was just thinking the same while swathing about its age. lol. when i was 17 and 18 years old back in 1974, 75 i worked the summer holidays from school assembling these swathers. they came in pieces on train flatcar. engine was in a crate,200 cid ford 6 cyl. very easy on fuel these are. main frame came basically with the pumps rear frame had to be installed, tires separate, header separate and parts all had to be installed. reels had to be assembled. it took me 1 1/2 days to have it ready to pre-deliver, go over everything with a check list. we had an old cockshutt 30 with a front end loader to do all this out in the yard outside. did the reels inside the shop. they are a tough old swather that just keep on going. they came out in 1970 till some time in the 80's when the 4400 came out.
