The threshing machine in this photo (May 2006) is a Farabaugh.
The engine was under the cab. Not only did it run the thresher, but
it also drove the hind wheels, so when it was finished at one farm,
they would drive it to the next farm. I am not sure of the date
these were made, or where they were made, but I think it was in
Minnesota. I have seen only one in operation.
