I know its the wrong color but its another one to my collection 1974 2255 White that still has the original 3150 cat in it. I grew up with a super 77 and a 1750 diesel so I'm familiar with Oliver. Those are 800 pound wheel weights the rear tires are 23.1x34 that are full so its done some work in its time and when I pulled the rear end and transmission plugs not even a flake on the magnetic plugs. This was right before I pulled the cab to put the fuel tank fenders on.

I know you guys work around and with and on the tractors all the time, and I’m no fraidy kat as I’ve been around trucks, bikes, compressors etc my whole life, but there is just something “dangerous” looking about tractors that if you let your mind wander just a bit you’re gonna get hurt, probably not true to that point but paying attention has to be respected.

Farming can be a dangerous occupation lots of different types of equipment and situations without formal training much of it solo, the Darwin types don't survive long fully intact

The equipment is relatively predictable it is the large animals that are not you always need to pay attention around them.

I have been stepped on and bit more times than I care to remember
