We had a 960 bought new in I think 68. No cab on it and it just about killed Pa with all the dust doing small grain. Us kids would take him out a bottle of Freska to try and cut the dust in his throat. He would come in at nite blacker then a

Tom,
We are alike,just eating up anything Case! HeHe,but like you Tom,I enjoy anything that comes on here except if there is fighten.And its rare here in the Combine side,guess we are all concerned about getting the crop in,dont have time to worry about a mispelled word or a word out of place.This is a great forum.Nice to see you Tom,I have been off the radar myself.

Here's our 660 the day I pulled it out of the shed after not moving for 5 years. Trying to sell it locally and was hard for buyers to look at it inside.

Bill I am going to guess that you are in SC? that is
a real nice and I would guess a low acre machine,I
wish that it was not so far away as it has many
options on it,scourclean unit,hyd reel lift,variable
speed cylinder,pickup reel, boy would that look good
in my collection, now if I could get you to haul it
out to me!!! ha ha by the way I am out in Wyoming
thanks for all of the posts Tom

Nice to see you saved her,and it sure looks like its in good shape.Man,to me,its just a pretty picture!

 

[CaseNutty 1660]

I see i missed one option it also has variable speed reel control from the seat also NICE!!!!!

 

[495man]

Not a Bill, I'm in Nova Scotia, Canada (Atlantic Coast)

I think it has most options except diesel and cab.

Cropsaver Reel, as far as I know original drive tires too. We didn't get it new, but it only did 25 acres a year tops on this farm since the 1970's. Always shedded up until this year.

Not much demand for combines in these parts now and freight costs a fortune even for local trucking of something this size. I'd likely have very little trouble selling it if trucking was free!

so sorry about the name I guess I read it on top of
post and assumed wrong no insult was intended, I
sure wish it was closer but I would guess it would
be 1500-2500 miles from me one way I can not put
that kind of fuel costs in even a nice machine as
yours seems to be from photos Tom

No problem on the name, hope all enjoyed the photos.

I've have lots of inquiries on it..most in same as position as you Tom, LONG distance and expensive fuel and hauling costs, hence why I have just kept local ads on it.
