Popular Post Valiant Posted September 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2013 I finally managed to get this home today after about 2 months of negotiation with a local "collector". It's an Oliver HG crawler tractor from around 1952 that has been fitted with quite a solid bulldozer blade. It's been partially dismantled at some stage and the original flat head engine has been replaced with a Ford Consul motor which is now stuffed too. The fuel tank is a nice touch Part of the deal is a Oliver flathead engine that is in a header, I'll go and get it next weekend at some stage. I think to get it running though a small car engine will be the go. It will be good to gut all the old crap off, and ditch the old motor and box. I have the old bonnet, grill, leg guards, fuel tank, blade and mounting frame. The kids think it's cool too. So feel free to tell me why it needs a 1UZ Gilmore pulleys and modgies. 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has a diff and brakes brakes. This isn't my one mind you. Apparently they don't completely stop the side being braked so they can't spin on the spot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
