The Moline must date back to 1961. Once New Idea
bought the rights, they appeared to produce a high
capacity new design, by about '64(?). The concept
was interesting: a self-propelled combine that was
also a 3 row forage harvester, even offered a snow
blower unit, optional Diesel engine. They botched
the design, by not offering a 4x4 drive, for mud,
and hills. Both Fox & Deere were building 3 row

to non-flatland farmers.By mid-70's, Uni's were
common on Deere trade-in lots. Guess there were
more performance issues left unsolved, they seem
to fadeout, by the 80's.
