i recently purchased a mm g1355 diesel 1700 hrs on rebuilt engine,with 3 point and pto everything seems realy tight,it has duals tires are about 35%,factory cab heat and air,can anyone tell me what this tractor could be worth,and did all the 1355 come with gear driven water pump?

Just like a baseball card, a tractor is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. What did you pay for it?...

Bill, all the G1355's had the same style water pump, in fact most all of the 'big block" MM's had the same style pump as far as I know, they are all driven off the distributor/inj. pump drive gear. Like moline one said the value of these tractors seems to be all over the place, one thing is for sure the tractors from this era are picking up in value. i have recently purchased a Oliver G1355 which seems to be a little harder to come by than the yellow ones. I am in the process of rebuilding the motor now, I will be posting some pictures when I am done.

There is also a red version badged as the White 2270 (Canadian market) After 1974 the chassis was restyled as the White 2-150. All were produced at the Charles City Iowa Oliver plant. In 1972 the MM Hopkins MN plant was closed and the engine tooling for the 585 was shipped to the Oliver plant and merged to the 3 x 6 Oliver drivetrain. It is interesting to note that the 585 was not supposed to be produced. White was working on a new 429 turbo and put the brakes on MM's 585 developement. When it became apparent that White's financial condition was deteriorating, the 429 was shelved and MM had to rush the 585. Many teething problems resulted.

Funny you mention the red tractors, I have been working on my Oliver Green G1355 and have found every different color under the green yellow on the rear axle and water manifold and red paint under the fuel tank front mount. I wonder as late as this tractor is ('74) if they were using up all the parts laying around.
