interesting and I always enjoy your pictures. I think IH sold chopper boxes too at the time and they were a re-painted Rex.
Why did IH switch to Hesston choppers? Could it have something to do with the White-New Idea merger? I believe it was a step up in balers but a step backwards in choppers.
No idea why the switch.....maybe money....don't know whether it was about the time New idea was no longer ?
