Possible 41McCormick Deering combine

[430WLPG]

I found this combine today I'm thinking it's model41 it's very good shape and complete engine free, wonder what it's worth? And how rare?

Looks pretty much like a Model 21. There were several RD21's in our neighborhood.

Looks like a 31, 41 or 51. It is too big for a 21 (also only to European market). The wheel at the end of the folded bacvk platofrm makes it look like a 31, 41 or 51. The 21 platform (as in 20 and 22) folded upwards not back.

Nice looking combine that needs to be saved...What size header does it have..I'd start out at scrap price..In my part of the country it would be rare but out your way and on north there are some left..

I can give you the following info from a book that I have..

#21=5 or 7 ft header 1932-37
#31=12 or 15 ft header with extension 1935-40
#41=16 ft header 1935-40

Has a 12ft header does your book say the weight? Going though auction and scrappers will be there

A 15 ft #31-RD McCormick combine with 6 cyl engine weighs 7578 lbs per the original sales literature that I have..Thats a nice looking old combine and I sure hope the scrappers dont get it..

An 8 ft #22 McCormick weighs 4193 lbs....

We are going to try and get it

So where is this combine located? ...I have some old General catalogs from the 20"s, and 40"s that show these old combines
