Rumley Combine?

[C-Wade7]

If you go to Craigslist for Oklahoma City and search Rumley these come up from a post in May. I dont know the seller or if they are available but thought someone might be interested here are the pics.

I hope someone saves it from the scrap man..... I would take it if it was closer to home.

I do too. Does anyone know how old these are or how rare? I personally did not know that Rumley made a combine at all. I would like some backgound on it anyone knows it.
Thanks,
Coley

There are two near me awaiting restoration. I found one near here about 35 years ago and they died about 15 years ago and there was an estate sale. I felt it was too big for me and a project I didn't need. It was to be junked, but I talked the auctioneer into taking bids. A collector got it for $40 and later it was jacked up. I have no more knowledge about it.
Rumely made prairie and side hill combines.

Anyone knows if this combine found a buyer? I'd like to find one myself some day.
