Alan, Morning Ol Pard! Do not be dismayed at the path you have chosen. We see people every day find an old car, truck, tractor, etc, etc "just like the one We, Dad, Mom, Grand Dad, etc, etc had!!
You have found a "Piece" of your past. You Go For It! Non of us here on the Boards have a right to pass judgement, or opinion on this Combine project.
Just because a Combine is a less glamerious object than a old car or tractor or pickup doesn't discount this Machines worth to you. Sometime, somewhere your kids will value this combine as you do.
Saw a show where a fellow had some junkies show up at his place lookong for steel, old plows and the like. They had a "shell" of an old Moline tractor on their trailer. The Man identified it as a old family tractor of 30 yr prior, by modifications that were still in place. This tractor would have been better Crushed, BUT it was his Dads old tractor, He bought it on the spot, spent a boat load of money but, it is now show ready.
You GO Man! Look Forward to when it is ready to cut Wheat! Happy New Year to You and Yours!
Later,
John A.
