Mercuryman54 Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 This a 1/16 diecast Oliver 1850 HFWA (hydraulic front wheel assist). Started with a old Ertl tractor from the late 60's. Lots of brass scratch building. All of the front is from scratch. Various other parts are also scratch built. Tires, rims and a few other pieces are from farm toy suppliers. The front steers and some parts can actually be unbolted and adjusted. Thanks for looking.
DRIPTROIT 71 Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 I really like what you've come up with here! I'm a Red Power man myself, but that is one nice looking Oliver! Great Work!
Badluck 13 Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 HOLY COW!!!!! I had no idea you started off with a toy ERTL,I thought this thing started life as a SpecCast with a few refinements done to it , you knocked this thing right out of the corn field!!!....truly amazing work and as I said before I am a "Red" man myself but if it's gotta be Green then be a Oliver,keep them coming!
