The first ones were on diesels,that's all I can remember about it. Must have been in the 50s. Oliver had the majority of diesel sales back then,so a good possibility they at least had more with rain caps at the start. I seem to recall going to the dealer with Dad and the diesels had them,the gassers didn't. The first time I bought one from TSC to put on a tractor was in the 60s.
