Are you planning on using it or adding to collection either way a little over scrap not much demand for 40 year old choppers they are very inefficient compared to later models

If you would be looking to restore it, I have a large group of NOS parts specifically for those machines.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.
Real pullers don't have speed limits.
If you can't make it GO... make it SHINY

More like 5 cents a pound here for scrap "steel", but last I checked (long while ago admittedly) you actually got paid a little for the tires, but no more than the number of tires that normally were on the machine.

Two years ago I bought an Allis 780 with a one row corn head that was always shedded and very low wear. I paid $350 for it. It is a toy that I cut a few loads with each year. I even found an AC forage box to go with it. Tom
