the tractor is in great shape and the picker is very nice as well. Bidding is starting at $6,500 on the tractor, picker, and elevator, and the seller also has a No. 50 seller offered separately with bidding starting at $2,000. A very nice JD offering as it's complete and the buyer won't spend his/her t...

Where can I find the replacement rubber fingers for a husking bed on a 323. I found this picker and got the guy down to $1600. He says all it needs are three new ( I don't know what they are called) rings with the rubber fingers. I had one guy tell me they were $80.00 each. Where can I find them??? On edit::...

Does anybody know what the names of the paint colors are for the green and orange? The sheller manual has names but I can't find them in any stores. The names in the manual are Orange enamel, Green Enamel, Bittersweet Enamel, and Buff Enamel.

I have found several 324's and a 325 that I really would like to buy, but they are all too wide to haul on a deck over trailer. I found a 325 in Michigan (800 miles from me) that I was going to buy, but the guy told me that it was 112" wide. I don't know how I could haul it without wide load placards and a lot...

I spoke with the man that has the New Idea corn picker. He say's it's a 309. He's going to check the Serial # and get to me with that so we can tell the year model. He's going to email me pictures. He says that it's in good shape with only a dent on the bottom of the elevator. What do I need to look for when I go t...

Does any body know where I could find a New Idea three row corn picker, preferably just the gathering unit. I would need the narrow row gathering unit (I am on 30" rows).

First post, but I've been lurking. I just spoke with a guy that has a New Idea 309 or 310 that he wants to trade for a JD 127.

I bought the sheller today. I paid $400. The dealer said that it has never been put on a picker and all I will have to do is oil the chains. We're going to have about 80 acres of corn this year and thought we might pick it all with the picker and sheller. The dealer said that it was about a $3,000 to$4,000 u...
