I have a 1953 Oliver 66 Rowcrop with a single wheel front end. I was just wondering, how rare is this configuration?

Oliver tractors are semi-rare in Western Colo. but the ones that you do see are mostly single or wide-front configured as this country is 'ditch irrigated'. A single tire fits in the water marks and does not sluff off the sides of the marks like the twin tires on a narrow-front does. Some times the marks need to packed down a bit so that the water will 'carry' better and the sinlge front does 3 rows at a time while the wide-front will get only 2 per pass. Some guys will mount a tire/hub assembly on the 3-point with a toolbar and center it behind their wide-front to get the 3 rows at a time.

This tractor would not be common. It should have the long rear housings and axles as well. These tractors were mainly used in sugar beet and potato country. Remember seeing quite a few in the Scottsbluff Nebraska area.
