I am not old by any stretch but I am old enough to remember when the area White-MM dealer would jockey them in from out west. Seems to me one sat at that dealer for quite a while even though there was nothing run with it. Fast forward a bunch of years and everybody had the collector bug for the yellow Olivers. Probably could of snapped yellow Olivers up for 3-4000 dollars per good tractor back in the 1980's on average. Every once in a great while that same dealer will get one in nowadays but no bargain like 30 years ago. I was told by a White corporate man that the machinery at the Moline plant was getting seriously wore out in the late 1960's and that was the big reason the smaller MM tractors were discontinued. No doubt the White bean counters liked the consolidation aspect of one production line for both brands.

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.
