I ran across this and wanted to share a couple pictures.  I am guessing this is a Model 60 All Crop rather than a Model 66 – would you agree?   Any idea of an approximate year?   Of course I forgot to look for a serial number when I was there.

Thanks.

That is a late 1940s 60 combine.  Due to lack of materials at the end of the war they were using aluminum on there sheetmetal.  As you can see on this machine some of the sheetmetal is aluminum where the paint is peeling off.
 
Nice looking machine!

Thanks John and Jim!
Also Jim, thanks for the interesting story about the aluminum.
 
The place I saw this also had another one that was buried farther back in the brush.

I would have thought that aluminum would be more in demand than steel since it was used in aircraft for the war. Very interesting post. Ryan

Model 60. Looks good. Might be an extended unloading auger?
If its not an All-Crop, it all crap!

This machine is unique in the use of aluminum.  You will notice there is no lower bin auger, because the aluminum wouldn't last long.  This bin held 15 bu VS 18 on the auger models, and 25 bu. on the big bin 66 models that came later.  They came with varying amounts of aluminum depending what was available for galvanized steel.  I have one that has more aluminum than any I have ever seen.
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.
