Had to stop and drool a little bit

A local jocket seems to have switched gears a little the last few years and has a ton of Oliver's around the yard, and I can only assume he'd prefer to keep most of them for himself. Posted pictures from there before, but had a little time today when I was out & about with my oldest boy, so we pulled in and gawked for a bit.

Right away he points out this beutiful 1855 saying "look dad! It's just like yours! (well, minus the really shiney paint and MFWD on the front, and the period correct ROPS...)

Saw a few more that are a little more on the rare side, and some others that are just plain pretty...

This picture didn't turn out very good, but it's a 1555 utility.

Pretty sure Bandit needs one or 2 of these

Thought you guys would enjoy...

Really nice bunch of tractors he has, And YES I would really love to have both of those battery box/steps for my 1550 utility. Those seam to be as rare as hens teeth! Guess I will just have to build some. Bandit

Great tractors really nice shape.Ever been to Harry
Barrick's place in PA? If you like Olivers you can spend all day looking thru his buildings and he has good prices on tires too.

Nice bunch of Oliver's. I was wondering about the military 770-880? My dad was in the Air Force from 1948-1969 and told me about using an Oliver but didn't know what size. When I was at MacFadden's and Sons boneyard he had what looked to be an 1855 carcass that looked like military tug. Just wondering if anyone had seen a 4 digit military Oliver? Greg

if I had known they were rare I would have kept them off the last two 1550's that passed through.

Nice tractors, how beat up was the 8600 ford. Where are they
located was it forsale.

Thanks for the pictures Don. In the first picture, what was the yellow one in between the 1855 and the John Deere?

If I remember right it was an 1800 industrial. Near the back wall is a 1900 checkerboard w/ mfwd. This is at Chuck Tesch's lot in Forest Junction. Not to be confused with Tesch Bros. Implement in Seymour. I'm sure most of it is for sale, just not sure about the restored one's.... some had auction tags from Auman auctions.

Not too far away from this dealer is the Keller collection of Deere's. Got to go there many years ago when they had a show with my dad.
