Figured I"d start here, not sure what forum to post in... I have a 1959 Oliver 880 gas. I"m looking for a mower of some sort, something that can be used to keep the tall grass short and also be used to cut hay for baling (some day). There are some semi mounted sickle mowers I"m kind of looking at, but not sure if they would be a good fit for the Oliver. I"d love to get a pitmanless mower, and moght keep looking until I find one, but those always seem to be out of my price range. Would a JD No. 8, a JD No. 5, or a n IH 27V be a good fit for the Oliver? I think they are all 7" bars, which is okay as I don"t have a lot of acreage to hay, and a couple places I"d like to cut there is maybe 15 to 20 feet between tree rows. I"m also considering SP swather, either a JD 800 or a MF 655. You guys have been helpful with other questions, so any comments are welcome.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
