In terms of hard to find anything with the hydraulic front wheel assist is pretty rare.   [Reply]  [No Email]

I would love to have an Oliver Chilled Plow tractor (prototype for the Hart Parr Row Crop 18/27) but I only know of 3, though there are probably a few more. Also a Hart Parr 28-50, and a Hart Parr 70 standard.   [Reply]  [No Email]

If so, the production model that I would like is an Oliver Hart Parr standard row crop (sugar cane model) built in 1930 or 1931. I have only see one. My second choice would ba a Oliver Twin 880. I have never see one in person, but there were six built and one sold.   [Reply]  [No Email]

If somebody asked me to pick the one that would get the most looks at a show and would likely be the only one in the US,I'd probably have to pick the SAME built 462. Even knowing what it is,I always thought the G1355 was the toughest looking Oliver ever. The 1865 is a rare bird that looks tough and would be on my list too,along with the 2655. I wish I could find the 500 that the neighbor bought new back in the early 60s. I know where it got traded in on a new Ford,but nobody seems to remember where it went. A 600 would be even more rare than that.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Problem was, the sales guy was a dyed-in-the-wool Oliver man, and he thought the Oliver badged David Brown was slightly less than worthless, so his sales efforts were not the best. Don't know what ever happened to it. As far as the Oliver I'd like, I guess I'd go with the 995 Lugmatic, too. Just don't wanna pay "market price", LOL!   [Reply]  [No Email]

Last one of those I saw was about 10 years ago on a jockeys lot north of West Plains Mo. I was going too fast when I noticed it to stop and look.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Don't know where he came up with the number designation,but he had a heck of a nice set of decals made up for it,black background with gold lettering. The hood was custom made to mate up with the cab. Super nice job.   [Reply]  [No Email]

Rubber on the front and tiptoe rears. I have a few of those and am looking for a Raby cab for one of my 70"s.   [Reply]  [No Email]
