Do you have a general idea of when it was built? The paint scheme would match the tractors of that era. I would agree the main frame would more than likely be Prairie Gold but the wheels and trim could have been red, bronze, black or white and pobably combinations of more than one. Check Ebay for advertisements that show a disk similar to yours ------------- AGCO My Allis Gleaner Company |

Not sure but I seem to remember the implements being red with prarie gold wheels. Don't quote me on that though. Adam

| Most MM tillage implements were red with yellow wheels. Later on in the late 60's early 70's they went to white wheels. Interestingly the hay equipment was yellow. Do you know the model? |

| I bet some MM collector would love to take that off your hands for far more than $100. |

I bought one in 1967, had red frame, cream wheels, and prairie gold lettering. Not sure if yours is about the same viintage. ------------- |

I would think at 20', it would be too new to be prairie gold. ------------- 210 "too hot to farm" puller, part of the "insane pumpkin posse". Owner of Guenther Heritage Diesel, specializing in fuel injection systems on heritage era tractors. stock rebuilds to all out pullers! |

| My 12' is gold frame and hitch (not much left) and I would really have to use my imagination on the wheels. |

My uncle had a 15' with red frame and yellow wheels. It was a pretty good disk I think. ------------- -- --- .... .- -- -- .- -.. / .-- .- ... / .- / -- ..- .-. -.. . .-. .. -. --. / -.-. .... .. .-.. -.. / .-. .- .--. .. ... - Wink I am a Russian Bot |

| I looked at the picture, I would defiantly say red with yellow decals and yellow or white wheels. I would go with yellow wheels as that disc does not look like an Oliver disk painted in MM colors. The later MM tillage was made by Oliver and they had the white wheels. |

I think you have a "K" series disk. There are a few different ones. There is a bunch of manuals on ebay. Here are some pics.  |
