Harvesters

Self-propelled harvesters were sold as BM, BM Volvo and Volvo BM in 1951-1979, but I haven't found so much info about them. In 1979 Volvo and the company Aktiv Fischer AB founded the new Svenska Skördetröskor HB (SSHB), but Volvo left the harvester production business in 1980 when the Electrolux-company Överums Bruk bought SSHB. The first model was MST-91, and the last were Volvo BM/Aktiv 1110 and 1130 (replacing S800 and S830).

Here are some temporary parked BM Volvos.

Volvo BM S950, but I'm not really sure if it said Volvo BM or BM Volvo on the harvester. Maybe I'll find the time to look for my original photo sometime...
