Mercuryman54 Posted August 24, 2017 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
