Great video. My father had a Minneapolis Moline 10hp garden tractor. He said the milkman got the 12 hp and someone else got the 14 hp. The dealership got one of each when they first came out. He purchased all the accessories with it. He mowed with it until the cast aluminum deck cracked. The rear mounted roto tiller got a lot of use too. The snow blower bent something the first time he used it and he never used it again. I gave all of it to a collector friend of his when I sold the farm. A neighbor always used Oliver tractors on his farm. He had three if I recall correctly. I had a 19 hp Bolens Iseki purchased at the White Farm Supply in the early 80's. It went to someone when I sold the farm. I currently have the smallest Bolens Iseki, the 15 hp in hydro trans. I got it with Ag tires on it as no one wanted it until I came along, according to the first owner. He and I wanted it for it's small stature in gardening. It's great for that use. Farmers on either side of me still each have a White tractor. There is something almost elegant about them. They look like tractor Cadillacs to me. Thanks for this great video!
Tom this video was amazing really enjoyed it Oliver and white tractors I really like the red white tractor and the Oliver there's a couple white tractors that a farmer owns next to our field where are we keep our horses this guy's got a couple nice white tractors I've never seen on Oliver tractor around where I live in Central Utah thanks for taking me a long I really enjoyed it take care God bless
they have strongholds here and there still, but they are a rare sight in many places. it’s too bad, because every company had some good products but not so great management in a lot of cases . thank you for watching
Hello Tom great literature you put together some i remember .p.s. My son just picked up a OLIVER model 70 wide front Industrial needs new mag tractor is painted Blue at first we thought it was X Navy but do not see any plate for that and has a sissle mower a local town used it to mow along the streets son will have to look up more . Thank you for the pages here back in history 🇺🇸🤔
Dang Tom, that was a very good video. Its a shame all of those tractor brands have disappeared. IH and deere get most of the credit and rightfully so. But a lot of farmers uses the tractors and equipment in rhis video. And they made it work too. I reqlly enjoyed it Mr. Tom, thanks for sharing. Take care buddy👍 And btw, the heat index is a cool 102 right now down here in bama lol
