    I am all for scrapping but this, as a farm equipment collector has some value to it. Postings on Yesterdays Tractors.com are free and you will make more than scrap. there is a great bunch of guys over there and I hate to see this get melted, parting this out or selling to a collector will make you nice money on this. Not too many pull type combines around any more. I hate to see this, "Made ill in Illinois, melted in Shanghai"

    Heard this same sang n dance a million times! Are you really gona scrap that ? It's worth way more scrap. Ok then you want to buy it ? No, not really. It's how it goes every time, well, screw that ! One in the hand beats two in the bush. Besides that, it's free ! Had I seen that I would've hooked right on to towed it home. Tires flat ? I for one don't care, at 25 mph it doesn't matter. Usually only takes a couple miles before the chunks of tires quit flying off. Although inconsiderate, towing something, or even driving something with flat tires, isn't technically illegal.
