Subject: RE: 60 years an still doing its job



Still have the 1955 Oliver Super 77 my Dad's uncle bought new.

It was his main tractor for a lot of years. Plowed, worked ground planted and cultivated with it as well as making hay.

It had the pipe cultivators which made it hard to steer so he added a Char Lynn power steering unit to it.

Still a great tractor working today and has probably the best designed seat suspension ever made with the rubber torsional springs.

First pic is him with the hay making rig in the 60's sometimes.

Second is after I overhauled it in 1992 put in M&W pistons and new clutch.

Third pic is still at work at 50 years old in 2005
