[QUOTE="Cowcorn, post: 6526038, member: 107020"] The 1055 and its predesseor the 955 were 2 of the best combines jd made imho .we had a 1055 we ran alongside a massey 525 during the eighties the massey was the hare but just like the story the deere would catch up when the massey was down . Both were traded for a deere 1177 and it is a great regret that we never kept her . Good ones still make serious money that says it all . The 1177 sucumbed to fire and due to a much reduced acreage was replaced by our current machine a massey 29xp which varies from fantastic to downright awful depending. Spare parts can be a problem as none breaking over here and uk breakers can be expensive when you add carriage . I have just been drooling over photos of icanshootwells massey 855 and its another classic i wouldnt mind and now i must go and cut 12 acres of wheat i hope the 29 does not get jealous at me looking at her rivals and break down to put manners on me !!
