   Finally got the wifes Super 55 Ollie running and out the door six weeks after we got it. This is pretty much how it looked when we bought it except for the seat cushion,center hood strip and center grille strip. Not a bad looking tractor for $1000. Thought we'd get some before pictures before I did any real body work on it.
It should be a red wheeler but somebody tried to 550 it up I guess.

| rrlund,
Pretty neat anniversary present. Looks like a nice small Oliver for a lady.I think my husband should get me an Oliver 60 on full steel...but he says no, they get a lot for Olivers. :(

Hey Randy , that's a good looking tractor. I even reconize the gal in the seat. Now you'll have something to bring to Oakley being easy to load and haul. Glad to see you guy's got her going.

| It's tuned up about as good as it's gonna get unless Jon wants to mess with the fine tuning or something. Starts right up,idles good. Might have to adjust the float,won't quite rev up like it really should.
Don't know when I'll get any paint on it. Better let her get used to driving it first in case she runs in to things.
