Well got the bean head and corn Head offloaded the other day wasn't a pretty sight because the old boy that helped us load was 92 years old he had an AC 180 front bucket loader and of course two front flat tires on his tractor. The cutter bar Assembly and sheet metal pan and sheet metal parts and pieces are pretty much rusted out. Well I've managed to disassemble all the pulleys side rail units couple of shafts saving them for parts. Is the reel it's self worth keeping for any parts. Some of the wooden slats that the tines Are hooked to are broken most of them appear to be intact thanks for any info.

If you intend on using a 1960's model "E" Gleaner for harvesting, I wouldn't throw ANYTHING away. There are soooo many parts that you can't even buy anymore, let alone expect a dealer to stock them.

I just finished making new wood bats for mine. I was on the southern edge of the Derecho storm and my beans are somewhat down. I'm glad I have the finger style head and not having to use the standard flat style that's on my parts head. Rebuild what you have and don't throw anything away that could be fixed or otherwise reused.
