Thanks for all of the nice comments. It truly was a labor of love and a tribute to the great people who built this country be they farmers, workers, or those who protected it all. I never really appreciated history or antiques until I found old tractors.

As far as parts go, you kind of have to make what you don't have. I was lucky that the tractor was in great shape internally. The engine is the same as an Oliver 80 and the tractor was fairly complete. The parts that were not there or real bad could be fabricated (sheet metal, bushings, etc). The front wheel inners were saved from the original with new rim bands attached to the centers.

I'm not going to do another tractor for a while, but I know that the bug usually gets me in late summer and I need another. I plan on taking it to the Gathering of the Hubers this summer in Marion, OH where it was built and local shows here in Western Pennsylvania.

Thanks again for the nice words.
