We have two old AC rakes.
I've never really cared what the model/serial numbers were, because they are visibly and obviously identical; so one is parts, one is workable.
I recently, out of curiosity, tried to find the part number/serial tag with no luck.
I don't have a picture (yet)... but they are rollabar style.
The rear axle between the rear tires has a sprocket, which drives a chain... which goes to a sprocket at the end of a stub shaft, which transmits power to the gear box attached to the left hub of the rollabar basket. (kind of convoluted...when you compare to the NH style, where the stub shaft connects to the end of the axle... but whatever...)
The rollabar basket is suspended by cables, which go up to a threaded crank on the top/front of the chassis.
No dolly wheels... they have (or had) a little jack and mount directly to the tractor drawbar (much like a New Idea 402... which we also have)
Any guess what this model is or where I might find the tag?
