Could someone please tell me what has a higher value, a 99 GM with a single lever trans. or a two lever trans. Thank you.

Thanks Scott
Would you be able to tell me when Oliver switched from the two lever to the one lever. Why did they have two. I know that the later Olivers all had one (ie. 1900).
Thanks again,
Dean

Oliver did not switch to the double stick so it's not a year thing. They offered the double stick as an option for most of the production life of the Super 99 GM and into the 990 and 995s. It was also available on the Massey 98. The Super 99 had the double H pattern like a lot of Oliver tractors. With the double stick option one stick shifted through the H pattern and the other stick shifted between the two H patterns. The purpose of the double shift was to make it quicker and easier to move between the high range and low range. It's purely a linkage thing as the rest of the transmission is the same.

OK, since no one else has, I will take a stab at this one. I own 4 of them and have bought and sold a few. You did say high. Price is based on condition of course. I know of a rough one that I think $5000 would be to high. On the other hand, a nice un-restored one could fetch $11,000. A very high quality restoration should be $17,500 or more. It would not be hard to invest $17,500 by the time it's all done. Although the double stick is good for bragging rights I don't think it effects the over all value. There are plenty of other things that do effect the value. For example, if it had a PTO it would be worth more. I personally would pay more one that already had the high compression pistons. The early 1955 Super 99 GMs command high prices.
