Dang delete buttons. I'll start again.

TV Barnaby Jones had a 7045PS or 7060PS

Here On Earth B, C, or CA

World's Fastest Indian B

Blue Chips WC in the parade

The Mating Game with Tony Randall D series

Six Pack 190

Footloose the remake. Look for 7000 series when the kids are making ready the warehouse for the dance.

The rest are all maybes

John Wayne's Three Faces West, The Fighting Seabees, and the Hell Fighters

Clint Eastwood's Heartbreak Ridge

Ferris Bullets Day Off Ferrari scene. Is that an AC plow across the road?

The Green Mile There is an old tractor out in the yard while Tom and Gary are talking on the front porch.

What was the movie that had a Gleaner combine (?F?)that was destroyed in a twister? Was it Country? Seems like I can remember a TV movie that had an R6 in it.

Happy hunting. I like your post. It is fun

There were a couple 190's or similar models in "The Andromeda Strain", working ground at a government lab in Nevada.
I think it was Country the combine was in the tornado, was thinking it was a IHC 715 but don't really remember for sure.

The 160 in the NCIS episode (Filmed in California), is that an Oxnard hi-crop conversion?
I remember watching that live and thinking wow a 160 like mine, but it's a little different.
Anyone know who owns that 160?

Unit3, the last movie you are thinking of is Race Against The Harvest (known as American Harvest on TV).  Earl Holliman's character has new Gleaner R6 and/or R7 combines (can't remember which).  It was made in 1986.

A neighbor told me the other day, she saw an Allis Chalmers raking hay or something like that in one of her grandson's Mighty Machine videos. Yep, they ARE all over the place Big smile

Great post.....Good job on finding these... There was an AC/FA HD-11B on NCIS-LA recently... Also a TV Series had an HD-15 (remote-controlled) that was an "out-of-control" machine killing machine, 1980's or so.... They did a movie using the same theme with I believe a CAT D9 "Killdozer"....
