Some interesting finds from the Oliver Plant negative files at the Floyd County Museum in Charles City, IA. Taken June 12- 18, 1969 for White Motor Executive Meeting. Designated experimental model numbers: 1203 & 200

Thanks Jack. I've been saving all of these that you post. I wonder if that's the one they were going to put an all new engine and that CVT transmission in to. I've seen some color pictures of one with a cab that was supposed to use that.

Thanks for all the nice photos you've posted. I also save all of them. Keep them coming.

Wow, that 1203 looks a lot like the Ford Commander 6000 from the side. Kind of ugly!

That is the new corporate engine! Notice the drive for the injection pump is at the rear of the engine.

I read a story about this but I can't remember what magazine it was.

I'm pretty sure it was an old Hart Parr Oliver Collector,probably when Chris was editor.

What brand engine is that? There are some late model Iveco engines that have the injection pump at the flywheel end, both four and six cylinder.

That is one of the engines designed by White. They became the property of Perkins I think when Perkins bought the factory in Canton Ohio.

They've got kind of a Massey Ferguson look. Especially the angle of the picture of the FWA.
