I am currently trying to restore a 1953 Oliver 77 Rowcrop. I am currently at the stage of painting it. The problem i have is what colors. I want to get it to its original state, but it was previously been repainted. The grill was white with yellow underneath it. The wheels are white. There are spots of red on it. I just don't know what is what. I have been trying to find the same model and year to compare colors, but not having much luck. So, if someone could help me pick out the correct colors for the year and model, i would greatly appreciate it.

Go with what's underneath!! White wasn't introduced until the three digit series came around. There are big differences between a 77 and a 770, mainly in the grill and body work. Go with the red and yellow, and it will turn out really nice. Also, look at the photo section, you should be able to find a few different tractors in the series, including a 77.

Here's a webpage for the paint codes. Although, the 1953 Oliver 77's had Red wheels (rims), Yellow grill (with red center strip, with yellow painted raised OLIVER letters) and the rest was green. There is also a part right below the grill that should be yellow and the radiater nose peice that comes up and around to the cover your radiator cap.

What's your serial number to better indentify the correct year and the color scheme to get 'er done right?

Maybe someone can send a pic of theirs or you can find one from the left of this webpage under Galleries- Tractor Photos and do a search for Oliver 77.
