This is what I commonly refer to as the hornet. Its a 1960 770 gas. Its my toy but has to earn its keep on our 160 acre Michigan farm. Hooked on a 10ft Glencoe field culivator. Might pull our 12ft danish tine and baskets too. Want to find a 10ft disk for it as well. But it has pulled a 8ft ih disk in the past.
 
Actually had two of them one for in row dauls and the other is what's on it now. Found both at auctions, doesn't have any names cast in them only "Kalida, Ohio" ie heard anything that bolts on a IH in the weight holes will bolt on an Oliver. Don't know how true that is but that may help. Do some research I've been asked that question a lot before and never had an answer
 
Yeah the grille was pitted pretty bad and I like the different look. So I made and painted the name plate the same. I might see about getting a decal made up to go over it if I repaint it again. The rear wheels are painted green in the center
 
If you are talking about a front wt. bracket off a IH that holds suite case wt. the holes are narrower on the Oliver but I made one work.
