Just curious as to how many people still have them around and keep them functional. Pics would be nice!

| One of these days I'm going to start looking for a 1955 or 1956 A. It has to be one of those two years, though. |

I've got a late 1960's A with a three row narrow corn head. Will use it on a few acres this year.

I had a very nice one, 1961, did some oats with it last fall, then gave it to Ron Buttrum for his 79th Bday. He kinda wondered why I drove the Gleaner to his farm, I said, needed it to drop his Bday present( box of B parts), then handed him the key to the A as well. He has a whole barn stuffed FULL of Aliis, so I know it's gone to a good farm !

This is a picture of an AII from the HCOP show at Rantoul, IL from a few years ago. Not mine, just a picture of one that was in use. |
