Oliver cotton equipment

[valley77]

I'm just wondering if anyone out there has an Oliver cotton pickers or Cotton strippers. I just got one bought and will have it home this spring. Looking for some more information on the line. I'll end up getting the manuals from the Floyd County museum. If anyone has one I'd love to see a picture of it or any other information to share. The one I picked up is a 23-A pull type stripper style. Thanks in advance.

I run a lots of oliver cotton strippers. I run a 20, 23, 23A, 23B and a 24B. I bet you never seen a 24B? The 24B was a four row cotton stripper. The 24B was put together. Call me at, 512-633-5014

I would like very much to find a good 23-B or 24-B to restore. I grew up around these strippers We had 9 23-B's. We only ran 4 at the most at one time but kept the others as spares in case of break downs. Unfortunately, we eventually scrapped all of them. Do you have any pictures of these machines? I thought the 2 and 4 row machinces had the same model numbers. Were the 4 rows tandem axels machines and were they factory built? Please feel free to call 512-963-1602

What did you pull these strippers with? We used 504 gasoline Farmalls; 77 diesel, 770 gasoline,1655 and 1755 diesel Olivers, and believe it or not, a 3000 diesel Ford - the cotton was short that year. I would love to put together a harvest set of a 1655 tractor, a 2 or 4 row stripper. and a trailer with a 5025 or a 5026 Oliver running gear. We had two 5025's
