    It's really remarkable that there were so many motor vehicles seen in a comedy series about farm life filmed almost entirely on a soundstage. In the roughly 70 hours total of Green Acres, less than five minutes of footage was shot outdoors, or roughly 0.12%.

    Oliver's tractor was a Hoyt-Clagwell, (played by Fordson, uncredited). Hoyt-Clagwell went out of business 40 years ago, (nearly 100 years now), when Mrs. Hoyt and Mrs. Clagwell couldn't get along.

    It’s interesting how many of the farmers have tractors of recent vintage while many of their other vehicles are much older.
    I’m sure that an attraction to Hooterville for O.W. Douglas, in addition to the opportunity to farm, was the convenience of leaving the top down on his Lincoln and not having any reason whatsoever to worry about theft or vandalism when it is parked outside Drucker’s store! He knew he couldn’t do that in Manhattan. 😂
