I am looking for any information about a New Holland Baler that I have. It is a square baler that you sit on and drive. It has a pressure sensitive seat that automatically shuts the enging off if you raise up off of it. It shoots square bales out the side. I inherrited it from my father and am wondering the value it has. It still ran as of 2001.

I moved this the the implements board so you may get more success with your search.
I know N.H. made several models of s.p. balers from the late 50s until the mid eighties.
They were more popular in the northwest part of the country for some reason.
You can still see them come up for sale on tractorhouse and other farm machinery sites from time to time.
Do you know which model of baler that you have?

i can get it. But I do not know what it is off the top of my head. I just know that not a single person that we have talked to has ever seen one.

yep that is pretty much what it looks like but ours is rust colored. We are trying to find a value on it and are wanting to exhibit it at the shows. We need the value for insurance purposes.

We found the serial # and model # of the baler. It is a 1280 model and the serial # is 1376. We also have a Massey Harris Combine. It is a model 35sp915058z1. The rake is a New Holland Rake model 256. We are looking for any information on the value of these items.
