- My good friends the Wernettes came out for a day of fun and plowing at my place. They store their Olivers at my farm, so this gives us a chance to get them out and work them a little bit. The ground was quite dry, so getting the plows into the ground was tough in spots, but we didn't let that stop us from having our fun. In this video is my CAT powered 2255 FWA pulling 8 - 16 inch bottoms, Phil's 2150 FWA pulling 6 - inch bottoms, Alan's 1755 pulling 4 - 16 inch bottoms, and Andy's 550 pulling 2 - 15 inch bottoms. Thank you to Julie and Andy Wernette for shooting some video for me.

I had 2 Massey 4 wheel drive tractors years ago. 1500, 3150 Cat and a 1505, 3208 Cat.
Never had a problem with either of them.
YES I remember where there use 2 be a oliver tractor dealer at I and my uncle moms oldest brother we use 2 go pass it all the time it was a brick building right in town it wasn't around here or close by it was on the way 👍 2 a tractor pull 👍 😀 OMG 12 7 2O22
❤️❤️❤️ great video, takes me back 50 some years.
My 2 year old loves your videos the best of all the popular TH-cam farmers. He likes that yours are old school, just tractors rolling coal and pulling iron.
That's awesome! Thanks.
I will always have a special place for a 2255. I had buried a Oliver 1600 to the axel and our neighbor had a 2255 that pulled me out like a toy. I have heard that the engine was a throw-away engine but my neighbor used his for several years without a problem. Great video.
Thanks.
Awesome Cat powered Oliver. Heck, all the Olivers were awesome to see. Thanks for the vid. Cheers
Looks like it was alot of fun.
Thanks Chris
Like the plowing video
Having been a farmer all my life I do enjoy watching these videos. I love watching a plow. On our Saskatchewan farm we didn't plow. Our father and grandfather did but we needed to conserve trash to prevent soil erosion. I love your 2255 Oliver and the other two as well. They are sure straight and original. Wouldn't a shiny new coat of paint dress them up? I especially love the Cat V8.
I'm mostly no-till myself, but plowing runs in my blood, so we do a little each year. It also gives me a chance to pick rocks.
Good times! Loved watching the plow turn the soil but plenty of crooked furrows doing it!
Yeah, I definitely did not have my A game on.
That 2255 was pulling that 8 bottom like a toy.
The only Oliver missing from the collection is the 2655 4-wheel drive.
Love the Oliver
We had a 1755 for forty years and it sounded just like the 1755 in this video. Love your videos keep up the great work.
I should do like them Olivers because grow up driving them whem I was young, but now we three Steigers and they build back in 70's.
Another awesome video sir I always enjoy watching and looking forward to the next video
Love these tractors. Your 2255 is my Favorite.
I thoroughly enjoy your content, commentary and equipment. I love seeing and hearing these old Oliver’s working. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Chris, for reminding me how much I enjoyed plowing, although in the conditions you were plowing in wasn't much fun!! LOL!!
I did some more plowing yesterday. The rain we got Monday helped a little, but it's still dry out there.
Truly blessed to see your collection I love ever video you have made keep it up
Thank you
Great engine sound: seems it was a real perfect day with lovely wheather and a lot of some nice machines
The 550 could have a coil problem. When the coil gets hot it acts the same way when it cool back down it works just fine.
Nice seeing the plowing action.
That's what I'm thinking. I was testing it today, and the ohms are on the high side for the primary. I ordered a new one.
As always you are having my kinda good time there! LOVE them little 550's. That's what I use around my place to play farm. I pull 2-16's (Ferguson plow for now until I find an Oliver one). Handy little tractor. Mine's got a Freeman loader on it too for pulling fence posts, loading and unloading heavy stuff, plowing snow, etc. etc. All beautiful Olivers there man.
Great video as always Chris I always liked moldboards they do a nice job.got story for you when I see you.
Awesome video Chris! hopefully it doesn't rain all fall here in central Mn and we can have an antique Oliver plow day ourselves.
I just found your channel and I’m glad I did! You defiantly have a subscriber in me! I grew up on a farm that ran Oliver’s and I have an 1800 c with front wheel assist. Great videos look forward to seeing more
You'll like my next video, it's my 1800 C Fwa with my roll over plow.
Wow that's a lot of iron in the ground, doesn't take long to turn over 20 acres ! Your tripping bottoms make me appreciate my worn out 508 thanks Chris
Love the Oliver tractors, I always like there appearance good looking tractor. I liked watching the 1755 with the 4 bottom plow. It is similar in size and weight of my 1990 Massey Ferguson 3070 I have a Massey Ferguson 4.16's bottom plow it pulls. Enjoyed the video
Thanks for watching!
Know what you mean . At least you get yours to reset. We had one you had to pick up. Fight it to get it back in place then put a shear pin back in. Those were the good ole days right. 😄👍
I could never get anything done with a shear pin plow.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Yeah , I know right. I'm 63 now I was 15 back then 😄. So I was just picking at you . No disrespect intended. They were the good ole days buddy . Have a great turkey day coming up. Thanks for the video. Enjoyed very much . Oh, we used a Ford 3000 with a two bottom plow. Should have had a 3 but didn't want to buy one. Back then you only got what you needed . Take care. 😄👍
Sorry if it seems I took it wrong, I didn't feel any disrespect, so it's all good. It is said that youth is wasted on the young, that's probably why they were the good days, we had the energy to fight with that equipment. I hope your Thanksgiving is a good one. Any holiday with food is a good one in my book.
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Well thank you very much. And you are good. I just remember a different time in life. You're find we all think back from time to time. It's good to do that. Helps us remember where we came from . And no you didn't take it wrong . You're good . 😄👍 Pop a top 🍺. I did . 😄👍🇺🇸
Not quite half century old tractors here but looks a lot like the half century of progress show in Rantoul Illinois , I'm sure you've seen it but your tractors and plows would be a hit there for sure!! Thanks for the interesting videos!
I like to see good video of Herman plowing with that setup
There's some video of him pulling this exact setup last year at this link. th-cam.com/video/EPRLmR8POYc/w-d-xo.html
Awesome. Just awesome! Looked like a real good time! Yeah, them gopros (and fake ones too) don't pick up too much sound when they're in the case. But the angle was great! Really liked all the different camera angles and voiceovers! Thanks for the great video!
I didn't think about it being in the case! My brother said he's thinking of upgrading to the hero 7, and that if this one got plowed under it was no big deal. I might have to do some more plowing!
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Haaa! Just "helping" your brother out, right? It would also be a good "test" for the gopros lol!
Reply to Brad not Landa
I always appreciate your diagnostic discussions.
Herman is sad that you left him.
His tire wasn't quite back together when I filmed this.

New viewer for about a month now, from across the pond and enjoy your honest presentation...
On your 🚜 's there's no "roll" bars which seems dangerous to me...
Nice video 👍👍
These tractors were built when roll bars were just becoming an option. You can't buy a new tractor now without some kind of roll over protective structure. I've got one to put on the 2255, but it is industrial yellow and needs cleaned up before I mount it. Thanks for watching.
Robert is that across the pond from western US or eastern US

The Atlantic ocean is between us.
We r an Oliver 550 with 3 13’s and it works better then our brand new one
I grew up with John Deere tractors, so my knowledge of other engines is limited. Over the past few years my brother and I have been trading in our Deere's for New Hollands and have been really happy with them. One has a Ford engine and another a Cummins and the other a Fiat. We really like the super steer on our FWA TG 210 it turns almost as short as a 2 wheel drive.
Awesome plowing video!! Great crew and good bunch of Oliver tractors. It's a funny mystery how it took a few years for you to find that broken coulter. I broke one this spring just like that, I did find it while walking the field though.
Not only did I find the coulter, my friend Alan found a gang wrench that had fallen of the disc in this field a few years ago.
Just found your channel and have been binge watching your videos! We don’t see many Olivier here in GA; I’ve only seen one in person (all Deere country here!). Are you still able to get parts for them relatively easy? A tractor tour video of all your machines would be awesome!
Common wear parts are fairly easy to get. Some of the other parts like sheet metal are getting reproduced for the collector market. Other parts can usually be bought from salvage yards. Of course there are parts that can be hard to find, but overall it's not too bad.
1755 and plow are nearly the same as in my plowing video. Only real difference in the plow was I had a gauge wheel. Tractor difference was late 1750 vs 1755
We don't see many gauge wheels around here until you get up to the 6 or 7 bottom plows. Must be we are tightwads, because they are nice when breaking over hills, to keep the back from gouging in deep
Check the coil on the 550. I had a old truck that ran good when it was cold, when it started getting warmed up the coil started shorting out.
I've got a new one coming. The ohms were high on the primary, even after sitting all night.

On your 2255 setup are you getting by on 2 hydraulic remotes or 3?
Just 2 remotes. The front plow is operated entirely by 1 cylinder, and the back plow has the other one.
Do you run some of the new radial rear tires ? I had a 7 bottom plow on a JD 8320 in furrow and the furrow that I I ran in messed up the tire ? New radial tires seem to have weak side walls ? Had to go on land , because of it .
I have a couple tractors with radials, but I don't do much plowing with them. They do seem to be finding ways to make things cheaper all the time.
Nice video Chris! Oliver and White used a lot of different engines over the years in their tractors do you have a favorite?
I grew up listening to a 310 Waukesha, and I love it to this day. Although, the Hercules in the 2050 and 2-155 is kind of hard to beat.
Where are you located? Nice video , I'm kinda a deere guy but that collection of Oliver's looks pretty sweet!
I'm in southern Michigan.
Ok thanks
Does plowing help keep the rocks off the surface ? Are there enough rooks that trip the plow bottoms to dig them out ?
The plow will bury many of the rocks, but will occasionally bring some to the top. The ones the are just below the surface are the ones that are roughest on things like the disc and planters. The ones on top are mostly a threat to the combine. I have gone out and dug up large ones where I can tell a bottom had tripped. I got a couple with the backhoe the day this was filmed.
Nice 4wd tractor. Never seen these in the UK. What power is it?
The official rating was 146 Pto horsepower. Thanks for watching!
@@ThatOliverGuyChris Big tractor..must have been about 160 at flywheel. Liked!
3208? A 3408 would probably shake the ground when going by the camera lol
