    this is probably the smartest Oliver-White mechanic I know of in this world and he has only 10,100 people subscribed to his you tube channel. We need to get him up over 100K subscribed and make it worth his time to give all of us old Oliver lovers the in and outs of all the machines we all once used in our younger days. Thank you Chris for all you do for all of us. Someday I hope to see your complete Oliver-White collection in person.

      I appreciate that. I'm already doing all this stuff, so why not share. Doesn't matter if it's 10K subs or 100K subs. Besides, the more surviving Olivers there are, the better the chances are parts will still be made for them.

      @@ThatOliverGuyChris still I think there are more people like me who loved the Oliver's and White's who are not mechanics of this world. One of these days I will find a old Oliver out there that I will attempt to restore the right way and I will remember what you have taught me here. Thank you for teaching me. I still have a old super 77 Oliver diesel that I used on a 4 row Oliver cultivators ( not the pipe type but rather front bracket ) that I would like to restore.

    I was never enthused with Oliver /White tractors until years ago when a neighbor asked me to help him. He put me on a White 1950 that was an absolute beast for work. Now after watching so many of your videos I've developed even more interest. I still like the "other" green tractors but I have to say it's pretty much an equal appreciation for both. Keep safe and well, Chris.

      We sold Westendorf loaders, and was impressed with how well they were built. If you're looking for an Oliver/White loader, a 1710 is a good size match. There was another model 17xxqa, it's quick attach. Olivers loaders were built by Schwartz, and I have the Schwartz equivalent of the quick attach on my 1750.

    • @ThatOliverGuyChris
      @ThatOliverGuyChris  4 роки тому +1

      No trouble. When towing them, you want to make sure your are using the low range neutral. (the range with 1st and R1). Then the gear that needs lubrication is turning the same speed as the input shaft, and can't cause trouble. The high range gear is lubed by splash oil, so it's going to be ok, as long as there is oil in there.

    What are the top 5 or 6 rarest FWA Oliver models in terms of tractors produced?

    • @ThatOliverGuyChris
      @ThatOliverGuyChris  4 роки тому

      #1 is the 1750. They made 22, but then 4 of them were converted back to 2wd before they left the factory, so only 18 built with green paint. If you really want to get rare, there were only 3 1750 Cockshutts built with FWA, and all are 3 are in the hands of collectors.
      Next up would be the 1600. 28 green ones, and 3 red ones.
      I think after that would be the 1755 at 47 green ones, and I haven't added up the red versions.
      There were only 80 2050 FWA built in green, and I think it's 85 green 1650 FWA (there was only ONE 1650 that ever shipped from the factory with Terra Tires)
      Some of the models haven't been fully added up yet, because of the way the factory kept records in 64 and 65. 1800s and 1900s are in the 100s if you add B and C series together. The big horses like the 2150 (over 300) and 2255 (508 green ones and only 15 red ones) got more built, but still are relatively rare tractors in the big picture.

      That Oliver Guy - Chris Losey what about the A model FWAs? Isn’t there supposed to only be 2 or 3 1900A fwas?

    • @ThatOliverGuyChris
      @ThatOliverGuyChris  4 роки тому

      Forgot about that. I guess in my head they were experimental, but they are still tractors. I think the number is 3 for the 1900s and 5 for the 1800s in A series.

      No. The previous owner told me he remembered bringing it over to our dealership to get the updated block put in. I remember it getting overhauled back in the 1980s, that was most likely the last time it had a major as they had bought a White 2-135 that did the heavy work from there on out.

    • @ThatOliverGuyChris
      @ThatOliverGuyChris  4 роки тому +1

      If it doesn't have the long pinion shaft, you have to find one, then strip the rear end to just about bare to swith the pinion shaft. If you have a long pinion already in the tractor, it won't have a speedometer. Then you need a transfer case, driveshaft and front axle. There have been guys doing it, but it's a lot of work.

      Sometimes it gets hard to remember, and depends on how complete you consider a tractor. I think I consider this one 41.

      It really is. Today I did some digging and found sheet metal from an 1855 we parted out about 30 years ago that is in much better shape. Now I want to put that on, but I've got other things i need to be doing.

      The second largest dairy farm in the state used to be just a couple miles down the road from us. They had a Versatile or 2, but other than that, there weren't many around here. Not a lot of big open fields around here in those days.
