I rescued an 1955 0c3 from being reduced to a pile rust in a small costal town in northern CA. It has an IMP angel blade dozer on the front that has the hydrolics modified from the original design, and an and Anderson 3pt on the back. The tractor had the job of cutting dirt roads off high way 1 near the Fort Ross area. It had been worn completly out as far as I know twice (wheels sprockets, bearings and engine). This is kind of the 3rd restoration or de-rustation. When I got it was sitting out in the weather .25 from the ocean for 30 years.(Beautiful view) Exaust was full to the top with water but with a total tear down re-ring, valve job, and honing it runs real good.
Right now I got the undercariage off and disassembled. I got or have made most of the parts to replace the worn out componets.(Landis Zimmerman realy likes me). I just got to get out the sand blaster out and blast eveything! (I just hope that there is somthing left when I'm done).
I payed about $.14 a lb for it, so far I probly shook, chipped, pealed, knocked, and torched about $10.00 off that thing. But ahh hell it challenging and fun.

By the way dose anyone have a spare air cleaner I'm still looking for one. The Orig. was acasualty of the ocean air. And Either know where I might get or get drawings and measurment for the PTO unit driveshaft. I just picked one up and I'm missing the drive shaft from the tranny to the PTO and the slider gear. I'll try Landis for the gear since gear cutting is beyond my machinery capiblity at this time. Butr the Shaft I could make farily easy.
Thanks

Hi Albert,

A friend of mine has just given me an OC3. I have never worked on one before but done several tractors. I live in Carlton, Oregon and would like to fix this one up so it is good operating condition and repainted. I have a small farm and a small cat would come in handy. It will be awhile until I get started since I am just starting to go thru a JD 2040. Can I call your phone number if I run into problems. Thanks

I have an oc-3 with loader and an os1x with six way dozer blade. I am looking for track rollers, or track roller rebuild kits for both.

I have a oc-3 that was originally purchasedby my uncle the sixties, second hand. It has a straight blade and up and down hydraulics powered by a pump on the front of the engine. Also has a Cargo winch off the back of the transmission. When running properly it has more power than undercarriage. Great machine for a small farm/hobbyist.

I have an oc3 orginally used to plow the sidewalks of a local town. Had an angle blade on it. I built a straight blade and welded it to the
arms. Am interested in seeing pictures of a correct straight blade as well as to what uses oc-3 were put to use

I've got an OC-3 that is in good shape and runs well except needing bushings on the idlers and oil pressure only about 8lbs. I called a guy who was two owners before me and did some work on it and he told me that it used to be owned by Charleton Heston who used it to maintain the gravel driveway at his camp. CH used to have a large place in northern Michigan so I guess it's possible. Besides, this guy had nothing to gain and who would make up a story like that? I call my machine "Moses" If any of you runs into Mr. Heston let him know that if he had one, he's welcome to stop by and give mine a whirl any time.
