twood1954 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Being the winter is getting old. I thought it would be fun to see pictures of everyone's favorite tractor. Here mine. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rowehl Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Since the other post was about my favorite IH tractor, I will put up my favorite non-IH tractor. It is a 1953 Oliver Diesel 88. My father purchased it used in 1958. He kept it until he retired. If I didn't know better I would say it was the inspiration for the Eveready Energizer Bunny; it kept going....and going....and going.....

timbo1946 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Each one is special to me. W6 given to me to restore for friend of the family so it would live on. OS6 with Ottawa loader was the first tractor i bought as my own. Went with my Dad for days to find a dozer for our farm, brought it home in 68, when I was 6. The last, OS6 that my grandfather bought new in 46. Got it back on the farm around 2002 after we sold it at the farm auction in 73 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazy WP Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 By far my favorite that I own now. A close second would have been the 450 diesel with a set of mounted Kosch mowers. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hardtail Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I would say Lorenzo's dualled up 560 is one, there are many but I had another of a dualled up W9 but can't find and really probably not needed unless you are Jeff trying to hay a floating lake, here's another not mine but I do have a couple W6's and one W9 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IHandJDman Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Just came back from the mechanic with a new wiring harness, led lights, fixed hydraulic levers and it shifts like new now. I had the turbo rebuilt last year and now I'm ready to farm with it again. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Dinan Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Don’t have a favorite. I like them equally!!! I’d wanted a 284 since the early ‘80’s, (dad wouldn’t buy one), the Hydro 86 was my first tractor (that I bought), and the 3688 is a great planting and baling tractor. I still have a couple more that I want yet. 1456 and a 1066. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

augercreek Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I built this in 96. Every year up until last year it has skidded out 12-15 cord of logs. Some times used on the wood processor but, Bessis has taken over that job now. 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
