From the color slides archives on the 'plant' at the Floyd County Museum. Every time questions are asked about this tractor there are more questions than answers. Yesterday a lady was here with a photo of her M-M G1350 painted red. The G 1350s were built from 1969-1971. The Oliver 2155 was built in Minneapolis, MN in 1971 .

Awesome picture. My serial number lists the LP models from 1969 to 1972. The diesels
from 1970-72. This one must be a later 1971 since it is a flat grille. I have a 1971
G950 diesel with a flat grille.
 
I forgot that there were some LP's built in '69. I'm guessing they didn't start diesel's until '70 because they were trying to figure out what to do with the 585?
 
I think you are right on the diesels. Im guessing they were getting the "bugs" out. I thought someone in the MM design department once mentioned MM was planning on building a powershift and put a Cummings engine in them. It was around 1970 so you know where that ended up at....
