John Deere 2 row Planter

[Smalltown]

I’m probably going to look at this planter on Friday (12-31). Have any of y’all ever used one of these or know anything about them? This one has been restored and I could use it planting corn and sorghum this spring.

Thanks,

Jordan

Looks like a model 999 . I used one this spring to plant 5 acres of Roundup Ready corn. It worked very well. The one I used did not have the fertilizer attachment or the front dolly wheel on it . Yours has all the bells and whistles ! Have fun !

If there does not apear to be much wear on it I would give it some serious consideration. Around here they are bringing some serious money so if the price is reasonable now is your chance. Who knows when the next opportunity will be to find one that nice. I have a McCormick Deering like it without the dolly wheel. I gave $500. and was offered $800. but refused because I had to look a long time to find this one. Good luck

Thanks for the input. I did get the planter yesterday, can’t wait to use it.:D

Wow! Someone really wanted that old planter. Makes me feel much better about what I payed.

That looks like a really nice rig right there. I’d run through a factory of barb wire to get one like that. You should snap it up if it’s in as good as shape as first impressions appear.
