Went to an auction yesterday they sold 3 tractors Oliver 1850 WF pretty clean tractor ran good $3300,sold a MM U302 with a loader,gas,PTO shaft wrung off flush with the rear end housing,that bought around $3300,sold an AC D19D NF looked fair smoked some,needed turbo work it bought $3800.I'd of never thought I see a D19 out sell an Oliver 1850 you never know.
 
That 1850, gas or diesel, would have brought a few more bids had I been there, almost perfect tractor for feed wagon, or at least the size wagons I use.
 
It was diesel,I started to bid but have way too many tractors to use and don't need a tractor that size right now.I bought a Long/Landini R9500 last year with the same 354 Perkins in it for $900 at an auction it'll do anything the 1850 will do.Still a nice tractor though.
 
Yea, Oliver?s are good solid tractors, my family on both sides had a lot of them over the years. Like you say they still bring good money, good tractor.

Yeah, around here the Oliver would have brought more and they would still be looking for an opening bid on the D19.
 
I would agree that 1850 went reasonable compared to the other two. I wonder if the D19 had some collector value that helped it .
