Allan, I'm glad you found the old gal, cause now we have an unfolding story to follow over the winter. Of course, refurbishing this combine makes absolutely no sense, if you're looking at it as an unbiased and logical observer; but we here all know that this nonsensical project makes more sense than most of the stuff we do. Sometimes, ya just gotta do what ya gotta do.
I didn't suffer much personal strife during the crash of the early 80's- but not because I didn't try! A buddy and I tried for 2 or 3 years in the mid 70's to put together a workable wheat/barley operation in eastern Washington, which would, of course, have crashed and burned a few years later- but we were never able to get our foot in the door. Don't presently remember the old saying about God watching over fools (somebody help me with it). I salute you for taking the plunge, and I salute you for getting up and dusting your self off afterwards, and finding another way to succeed.
Thanks to all of you who are going to help in every way possible- you're gonna have guys lining up to send you stuff, I think- and there's no way this baby isn't going to be ready to go next summer!
