Wife and I went to Maquoketa, Ia after work and looked at a 1850 Oilver and ended up buying it for $3500. Needs a good bath and some TLC and it might be a decent old horse. Yoke that attaches to tie rod ends is broke, be the first thing fixed. Anybody near there interested in hauling it home (80 miles), shoot me a email with a price. Chris

Great buy. Looks like the old girl still has a lot of spunk left in her. Had a nephew in Bowling Green, Mo who bought a tractor in Illinois last fall and drove it about 45 miles home. Now he plans to drive it to his new farm, sone 85 miles away. Makes for a long day!!!

It's been done before. If the steering worked, I'd have it home by now. Chris

Hey Chris, nice buy! Always wanted that style of Ollie. If I was still in Illinois I'd come over and gawk at it. I used to use a 1600G and those are nice tractors.

Can't help you haul 'er, but if you ask me, and you didn't, in my opinion you got one of the deals of the century. That is quite a find, especially for that price. Unheard of...at least for me. Goshhh dang. Congratulations. Can you tell I'm grinning from ear to ear for you? If you can't, I am. A few years back I saw a 1800 NF gasser setting in the back of a dealer and stopped to take a look. It wasn't the Oli I was looking for and needed major work. As I was walking around looking, the guy comes out and shoots me a price, and it wasn't no $3,500. And if I had offered $3,500, he'd have probably sicked the shop dog on me. And then I'd still have had to haul it a couple hundred miles home after getting bitten and chewed up. So, can you see how I'm grinning from ear to ear for you. Nice.
