Cool. I'll look it up in my Allis book as I don't know the gleaners that much, we always have had jd combines. Was wonder to if you do much bussiness with the local co-op in your area. My uncle is the manger at the eaton raipid farm burea co-op.

Nice looking Allis you got there. We use to have a 190XT when I was younger. Got a D-17 IV that we use alot now. What combine do you have? See in your discussion it's one with a 3 row so I thinking it's one of the old gleaners.
