Seems the JD 71(?) units are a easy to make garden planter. Kinze(?) is now making same thing or took over production. The unit has individual drive/packer wheel that turns plate or finger dropper- whatever- and in large tractor use is 4,6,8,12-- units on tool bar. Implement forum had a thread about someone buying older 6,8 row units and cutting them down to one and 2 row rigs for gardens and food plots, putting on 3 pt mounts. Sold for 3/500.00 when a new Cole was going for just over 1000.00. The older 6 and 8 row units were going moderately cheap, new units are foldig wings with a extra fertilizer or herbicide box and much more but the farmers that have upgraded have traded in older 6/8 rows cheap. The early 4 row rigs are still in use for the small plots and sweet corn and some are made into 2 rows by removing outer units so price is still up. Check a implement salvage yard or older dealer and ask to see the old bits and pieces pile. RN
