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.

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!
