A neighbour found this Sunshine combine while cleaning up an old yard. It has the original stripper head (comb front), with 3 wheels, only one of them driven. It probably worked well with really dry straw and firm, dry fields.
I follow a fellow on You Tube who explores long abandoned Australian farms and often finds long ago scrapped Sunshine combines with the stripper front.
It is a interesting and different perspective compared to north American farms. On You tube he goes by the handle Urbex Indigo.
