New Holland 65 Compact Wanted

[RWPjr]

I'm looking for a New Holland 65 Compact Baler. Does anyone here know of some one who'd be willing to part with theirs?

Any leads would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

IIRC, the bales that a NH65 produces are about 3/4 the size of “regular “ bales. As I see it, lighter bales that a woman would like to have when they feed their horses.

There was one for sale here in Ontario that I looked at this summer. Might still be for sale for al I know. It was tight, but the seller's price was a little steep in my opinion. You can usually sell the bales at the same price because some folks like the lighter bale, even though there's less hay in them. There was a Ford baler that made the same size bales too. Can't remember the model number, but it might be worth looking into if it's the bale size you're looking for. Ford balers used Rasspe knotter, just like NH (and others), so at least knotter parts will still be equally easy to come by.

Just looked it up. It was the Ford 520 baler that made the same small (12" x 16") bale size as the compact 65. I believe the Ford 150 baler also made that size too. Neighbour had a 520 he liked for the small bale size and easy pulling on his steep hills and running behind a little Fergie. I regret not buying it at his auction; It was a tight-running unit.
