Big Bud guy Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Here are three more scans in order 1964, 1965, and 1968. Notice the 4020 went to the "5020" style fenders in 1965 and the 5020 rowcrop reverted to the 4020 rowcrop style fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still have both the 250F plow and the 21ft FW disc but both tractors are long gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if any body has a brochure or ad for attachments for it. It has sat in this spot since the 70s I haven't found any Graveley pics in my files but this Gardenall is built along the same lines and maybe close to the same age. Ad from 1949.

edwardporter1 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 My dad had several Gravely tractors. Had a bunch of attachments too. You had to be careful as reverse locked on the old ones. Thing almost ran over me when i was 12. They were tough machines and i cussed the starting strap more than once. Too bad they went down hill with the newer ones. The 7.6 hp was pretty.torquey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acem Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 I found a brochure for Purdy land planes and grain carts I would like to post. What is a proper resolution to scan so the image will be small enough to load on the site? Thx-Ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most of mine are in the 2 MB range. I generally scan at 300 dpi if it is a big page ad. Small ads I will do at 600 dpi to get better detail.

Keith- Hi Keith Bucher themselves stopped making the transporters in 1994 (from 1965-1994 around 5504 Transporters were made). But there are two Swiss Companies still making them one of them is AEBI and the other Schiltrac (formerly known as Schilter). AEBI even has Dealers in North America. Yes the new ones have suspensions on all four wheels here is a video of the newest model but to keep to the vintage ads here is also an archiv film of AEBI testing there over roll protection thing -Urs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is not an ad but a picture that does show the similarities (identical) between the Cockshutt and Co-op combines in the 1950s. Two Cockshutts on the left and a Co-op on the right. I'm not sure on the model number but think these are the 428 combines. The last ones to have the engine down under the grain pan. Load star where did you find this puzzle? I have been looking for one for the last three years. This picture was taken just west of Alexander Manitoba. Those are my uncles and grandfather’s combines. I can’t tell you how much time I have spent looking at the puzzle framed on his wall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
