info on old MM combines

[djvl816]

I have a 2 Minneapolis-Moline combine's. Model 20 serial # 40800737 and a model LD uni-harvester serial # 39101610. Is there information on the WEB where I can insert the model & serial numbers and get information on these combines?

Thanks
John

Not sure where numbers are from. No model 20 or LD made by MM. Uni combine was a W4 or LA
Harvestor. No MM serial numbers even close.

It's been many years since we had uni's. wasn't the LD either a corn picker or Sheller? And wasn't the later combine a 120?

Larry you are onto something. I was thinking the same thing model and number he listed was for the corn picker "attachment" only. That was a model LD.

Checked all motor numbers and prefixes just don't match. If a Uni there will be a number on
motor and on actual Uni chassis. There was like guys say several attachments for Uni like
corn picker,swather, baler,huskor,combine and one other. Pictures would help.

Serial # 40800737 Is a model 120 combine unit manufactured in 1960 to go on a UNI tractor and # 39101610 is a model LD Husker-Sheller for a UNI manufactured in 1955.

I have several serial number lists that I have purchased over the years. The list that included your numbers was compiled by Lloyd McCray in 1993. The Floyd County Historical Society should have a copy of this list. I think my email should work. I'll check tonight.

Cliff I got that same copy as well but it is packed away someplace! That is such a good compile of numbers and listing all in one book.
