- Massey Harris Model 20, IH 240 Utility
This one I'm posting as nostalgia. My Dad found it on his neighbour's yard - made the exchange agreement for some yard work, did some figuring and rebuilt the unit. There was no color left on it to speak of, but we think we can see Massey Harris on the control arm. We found this unit for sale as an item in a 1948 Sears catalogue to boot, which was pretty cool to see. Amazing, really what used to be sold through Sears back in the day.
You can see the sector is not original an we couldn't locate it, even with a metal detector. The disc set itself was in about 8 inches of soil as it had been left for so long. The reach has been rebuilt out of Black Ash. The seat and seat "arm" are missing also, but would go into the bracket above the discs, making the user into the weight to press the discs down.
