    I picked up one of these a few years ago and look forward to getting it running. It's not as nice as the one featured but it is complete, the engine is free and the radiator and gas tank are clean. I also know it ran when parked. One unique thing about mine is it has a Sears & Roebuck manure loader. If anyone knows a good source of part for this model please share. I'd appreciate it.

    We had an Oliver Row Crop 70. I think it was about a 1947 and could pull a double-bottom, `6-inch Minneapolis Moline plow in 3rd gear with its 4-speed transmission. The 6-cylinder engine was smooth and powerful. The electric starter did not work so we either hand-cranked the engine or parked it on an incline at home and used the downhill "run" to pop-start the engine. In 1963, I had just graduated from 8th grade in Olathe, Colorado and my mom had me drive the Oliver 3 miles to town to pick up a few groceries. This was not a problem for our town Marshall as many underage "farmers" drove farm equipment into town. I parked the tractor on Main Street and did the shopping. When I came out, I had to use the hand-crank to start the engine, but that was no problem. Really miss that wonderful machine but never found out what happened to it after I left home to go to college.

I'm currently restoring a 1963 Allis D17 with "help" from my twin 4 year old grandsons. This tractor will be mechanically restored to 100% and cosmetically restored enough to do well at local shows an parades but, it'll also plow my wifes large garden and run the bush hog, among other tasks like it was designed to do in the first place. Tractors aren't happy in the shed or on a trailer, they want to work!
