I have a short video I tried to upload showing it running but it's not working. What format does it need to be in? And how large of a file can it be?
Thanks
Even ebay has parts occasionally.
Thanks for the information and comments. Every step of this build has been running into some thing broken, cracked or patched up by previous owner. He has been doing a lot of fabrication along the way. Hopefully sometime I can share the story on the engine build. He ran into many problems with it along the way. I believe the loader is a name brand loader. He has books on the machine including the loader. He might eventually put the loader back on. He is trying to get this ready for a tractor show coming up in August in Winfield, KS. K&O Gas and Steam Engine show. I believe the theme this year is tracked machines. I plan to haul my 3J D2 down. Dad plans to have this Oliver going as well as take his HD-5 Allis (as well as 5 or 10 Allis wheel tractors).
Dad ordered an original seat from Zimmerman Oliver. Thanks for the tip. He got it painted up and installed.[attachment=41810]39953.jpg[/attachment][attachment=41811]39956.jpg[/attachment]![]()
My dad has also refused to buy a "repop" grill. So he made use of a 55 gal drum lid and some time to fix his old grill that had been hacked on. He says it's not perfect but it'll work. I think he did pretty good if you realize the hand tools he used (hammer, chisel, dolly, etc... and oxy acetylene torch) I was really impressed and wanted to share.[attachment=41812]37792.jpg[/attachment][attachment=41813]37795.jpg[/attachment][attachment=41814]39999.jpg[/attachment][attachment=41815]39994.jpg[/attachment][attachment=41816]40003.jpg[/attachment]![]()
Very nice job on the grill:high5:
I used to load Cow Manure with one of these tractors. Very nice and handy loader tractor, a little bouncy but worked very well.
