I found it pretty neat that when I went by the ex-Horn (my last name) factory in Ft. Dodge, Iowa a few years ago, there was a construction company using part of the building that with the same last name as my aunt's maiden name.
I wish I could find one of the Koyker fender/lifter things for my tractor. I had one of those Harvey Red Head shellers until recently. First ad I've seen for it. I hope it's doing well in its new home in Maine.
I know . . . I see so many things out in the midwest that are still good and useable get scrapped because nobody wants them anymore . . . and it's stuff I'd be able to put to work . . . but trucking isn't 50 cents a mile anymore.
I just pickup one of those and it has Oliver row crop on it ! It has its mounting bracket and a long kind alike shoe on the front that was controled by another leveler !
