Kansas | I think the last 850/860 came out in 87. You can spot these because instead of the old MF logo on the sides they say Massey. It was in the early 90's they got the rights to the Claas conventional. Around 2000 they came with another series which was also sold under the C-62 designation for Gleaner but I don't believe it was a continuation of the Claas, and that version was dropped after 2 years. I've heard a rumor that before the 860/850 were dropped MF had a prototype of what they called the 870 and supposedly it looked very much like the 9000 series JD's (which could be true as I've also heard some MF engineers went to work at Deere soon after). | |
