Trying to identify this old rake for sale, looks rough but still turns smooth.
Has an IH sticker on it that looks original, and an IH stamped on a few other parts.
They are asking $400, cheapest rake within about 100 miles from me.
Thanks. received_545203279504933.jpegreceived_348176369491178.jpeg

White paint on reel ends indicates IHC although I've never seen that brand rake in 3 pt hitch model

Doing some more looking I think I might have found the model.
Might be an IH McCormick Deering model 12.
Looks like they originally came as a 2pt fast hitch.
No info to be found online about that model except an old ad picture and someone selling the operating manual on ebay.Screenshot_20200516-220656_eBay.jpegMccormick.jpeg

It's a 3 pt. hitch . look at the top link pin hole in the frame.It's just an old IH rake they last a long time.It must still have pretty good teeth for
400 bucks.

I would say that you have got it figured out.
Per the ad you found they could be purchased as a fast hitch or optional 3 point.
The pto powered rakes weren't very popular around here, mounted or trailing.
Most of the rakes here were trailing ground driven.
