Same thing really, but this one is a 60. One of the first years of production actually. Has a NEW rubber canvas on the upper, and I am so pleased with it, I am thinking about replacing the lower. I really don't want the stress of it possibly coming apart on me next season.

Hey Bryce you post a lot of fun pictures with a younger set of eyes looking to the past. You are a bit dreamy but without the rose color glasses. Very nice prospective on things. Keep it up there guy!

Most came with a bagger instead of the unloading auger...that was a very desirable addition! Ben

This one was actually ordered pretty well! Had an engine on it when I got it. Also had one of the ScourKleen Grain Cleaners on top of the grain bin. The guy that had it before me said that it also had a factory dually wheel on the bin side.

Might want to bale that barley straw. A couple of bales of it spread in a pond gets rid of pond scum and maybe duck weed and moss. BTDT north of Spokane.

Bryce, my son grows barley and sells to a feedlot. This year he baled 17,000 bales and sold them for $3.50 a bale.
He has just finished planting again here in NW SC.

It"s a Model 60...bin unloading auger is on the front side of the bin, not the right side. Bagger option might be a regional thing...I"ve never seen one on any brand of combine...granted, not been everywhere, but just typical for combines to unload into wagons or trucks.

That's what we are doing in the first picture actually. The combine only harvests 5 feet at a time, and the crop was light enough that I could handle 10 feet of straw easily with the Super C / NewHolland 68 Baler. That is me coming right along behind Dad, who is running a Super A with a McCormick No.5 Rake.

Sit up straight young man! I know you're too tall for that tractor. That would hurt my back. Great pictures!

Never saw one with a bagger and there were literally hundreds around. I had 3 different ones, a 43 PTO, 44 engine and a 53 PTO. Traded the 43 on a Massey Clipper SP and traded it in on that 53PTO machine. All direct cut.

We had a 66 with an identical auger set up, there were a few 60s around here that had baggers. Ben
