I have seen pictures of Huber tractors with Waukesha engines that look just like the Oliver 80 engine. Is it the same? If so did Huber buy engines from Oliver?
Thanks in advance for any infomation.
Chris.

Hi Chris!
The early Oliver-Hart Parr engines were designed by the company's own engineers but were actually built by Waukesha, hence the resemblance. The Waukesha engines used in the Huber tractors came from Waukesha. Some of the early Hubers used Stearns engines built in Michigan and later switched to Waukesha. Craig

HI Craig,
Thanks for the info, The Oliver-Hart-Parr engine was cast by Oliver in Charles City, IA and sent to Waukesha to be machined.
Do you know if the engines in Huber tractors were cast by Oliver or did Waukesha cast them aswell to sell them to companies other than Oliver?

Was there any other tractors fitted with Oliver-Waukesha engines?

Thanks for any answers,
Chris.

Huber bought the engines from Waukesha along with about umpteen other tractor, truck and heavy equipment manufacturers. Waukesha engines have a well deserved reputation for quality and longevity. Patents would preclude other companys from using the Hart Parr-Oliver designed engines. No other Waukesha engine uses such a screwed up governor affair with the throttle link passing from one side of the block to the other. You will find out how handy an idea THAT is!! Craig
