    Old old loader

    This is a MM R that my Grandpa had sometime between '46 and '54. (Dad and Aunt Shirley are in the bucket) I want to build a replica 1/16 scale of this R with the loader. However, I know nothing about this loader except this picture. Does anyone know a make or model? Is there something on the...

    Oliver 770 step

    My dad isn't as spry as he used to be at 74 yrs old. With a 3 point, his 770 was difficult to climb onto, so I made him a new step. It is 16" to the first step, so not much as a row crop tractor any more, but all he uses it for is mowing and tractor rides. Has anyone else noticed different...

    Oliver Foot Throttle

    I am looking for a foot throttle for an Oliver 77/88 or Super 77/88. I was looking in the book and saw it talked about, but it must be quite uncommon. I have a 770 that I use for tractor rides and would like to try and fit the foot throttle to this tractor. The industrial versions seem to...

    Carb question

    I have a 770 Oliver that runs good except when you open the throttle too fast it dies or spits and sputters. Runs great at full throttle and runs good if you open the throttle slowly. Is this a carb issue? If so, any ideas on what to do about it? Thanks in advance for any advice, and I...

    How can I increase rpms on my 77

    Can i take the lighter 770 governor weights and put them in my 77 to increase the high idle rpms a bit? If I could raise them to 2100 or so I would be happy.

    460 Wheatland Special-Strange control rod to governor

    Recently was in Avoca at Farmall Land Museum (Would recommend it to anyone) and saw a Farmall 460 wheatland special. It has a strange control lever on the side that looks like it somehow works with the governor. Does anyone know what it is? And how it operates? I will try to attach a...

    stainless steel or chrome mufflers

    Does anyone know where I could find a stainless steel or chrome muffler for a 1750 Oliver gas? A straight pipe seems easy enough to find, but I'd like an actual muffler. Sure would appreciate any help! Thanks!

    160 Allis Chalmers

    The fuel sending unit on our 160 Allis Chalmers is bad it is proving very difficult to find a replacement. Any ideas? This tractor was made in Renault, France and has a Perkins diesel 3 cylinder motor.

    Side screens for Oliver 770

    Dad has a super snoot that he used on his 770. I always assumed it was Oliver made, but maybe not?

    Side screens for Oliver 770

    I don't have a photo-Sorry. Maybe one of the other posters does? What I'm picturing wasn't a complete solid side panel like the older 77's and others had, but was a complete expanded metal screen. p.s. Thanks to everyone for taking the time to help out.

    Side screens for Oliver 770

    Back in '96 we had a 770 (Checkerboard grill/Flat fenders) destroyed in a machine shed fire. It had expanded metal side screens that I've never seen before or since. Does anyone know anything about them? We used to have a mounted 2MH picker on it and Dad possibly used them for that. (He...
