IH25 Potato Planter

FOR SALE

International Harvester McCormick Model 25, 2 Row Potato Planter

Late 1940's early '50s era. DOES NOT INCLUDE HYDRAULIC RAM. In good condition. Fertilizer bins worked on, front discs operational, and adapt new ones from/for IH corn planter as available parts. Shoes in good shape. Seed pickup heads and teeth look in good shape, overall. Needs fertilizer drop tubes. Tires were replaced with new ones in 2015. Fertilizer bin is free and its adjusters are fully operable. I put 2 new tires on 2016.

When the RAM picks planter up it disengages drive mechs, then down for planting. I have manual. Local PA unit, was in shed for last ten years or so, after planting 15 acres I was told. We are 3rd owner.

Purchased the planter 3/25 with intentions of using it for our planting Spring 2014, and have used it to plant every Spring since. It's had some patches to the fertilizer and seed bins. Spits out about 1,900 - 2200 seed pounds to the acre while dropping fertilizer. You need a helper riding on the back seat to keep the seed cuts from jamming and not dropping. I removed the wood extensions and Gamdy insecticide box. Set at 34" Rows now. Manual says adjustable and how, but this looks formidable, so I left it at 34. Case IH has no parts for this any longer in the system. So what else is new?

Everything is always for sale, in lue of our improving equipment. This planter is not available upcoming to or during potato planting season which is Spring March-May. We want to sell/replace it during the off-season after planting, with enough time to buy a new one
