They looked a bit narrow then i remember when we pick in 38" rows. Growing up we had a 227 on a 1949 A, parked it and found a 101 to use instead, lot easier on then narrower rows. Slower but less crop loss.

It's nice to see a 227 still picking corn. I have a 720 and 227 with both elevator and sheller that we still use on or farm. Go check out 2009 corn harvest to see it working.
