That's a neat setup! Wonder what make the platform is & if that setup is home made or not?

Thanks for posting these!!

Looks like it's set up for cutting peas. I ran rigs like that in my younger years. Then they used Oliver 1650s and JD 2510s

The "third" green!

Pretending to be a John Deere?

Is that the one setting by the produce stand on Dugualla Bay, North of Oak Harbor? Used to be a lot of those old pea swathers here in NW
Washington. Some were mounted on Farmall Hs. They could put on a real rodeo if they got to bouncing. Saw several off the road, in ditches,
over the years.

In the early '70's I used to chase pea swathers near Red Lodge Mt.
They had 3 swathers. Two were on reversed Ford 600 or 800 series Select-O-Speed tractors.
The third one was on an IHC M or H, reversed.
With out a closer pic or look, that one appears to be reversed judging from the
steering wheel and seat (or lack of), the light on the stand and the curve of the pickup teeth.

The tractor looks like an old 60or 70 Oliver.

(quoted from post at 16:45:30 03/05/23) The tractor looks like an old 60or 70 Oliver.

Yup, no doubt, especially with the "70" on the front.
