Not all of them. But my two favorites. I have the fenders off the WC. I'm trying to get everything looking halfway decent.
Side by side
 You can see the 1941 WC and the missing fenders
 look at that chrome shine!!
 Oliver is taller than Allis

I think I done really good on them
Paid $500 for the 1937 WC
Paid $350 for the 1941 WC came with a new Zenith carb with price tag of $350 still on it
Paid $2700 for the Oliver. One of last 4000-5000 built. Came with alot of hard to find origional parts.
Now they are priceless to me. ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

AC37, that shot was deliberately set up to mislead us and you know it! ... (I thought - that Rascal! he's been holding out - he's got one of those darned articulated AC rigs) |

| Real nice AC37. Those streamlined Olivers were some of the prettiest tractors built. |

I Wish. Those are the remains of the spoked wheels off the 37 WC. They were the only bad thing on it. It just goes to show what the calcium chloride can do to them. The 1941 WC is an awesome tractor. The body on it is in near perfect condition. The only problem with it is the motor and transmission. The old guy that owned it before I did actually lives in an insulated metal building and had been treated like crap his whole life. He could talk for hours about how he used that tractor and pretty well anything else one would want to know about it. Anyway over the years it had sat in front of his house and the sleeves broke, one piston is bent, and the transmission is forze up. My papaw kind of knew the guy and about two weeks after getting the 37 WC we decided to go look at it. Needless to say we bought it and now it sits here waiting for it's turn to be fixed and enjoyed again. Origionally it was bought as a parts tractor but after a while it grows on you and that's when you decide that one day you'll have to fix it.

...and that's just how it begins - one day you're a bored kid, and the next you have projects to keep you busy into old age. Keep on keepin' on! |
