Without knowing the entire circumstance, perhaps I should keep my nose in my own business, but you seem intent on getting your point across in spite of the fact that your post has been wacked more than once, so it becomes obvious you are soliciting reaction. First of all, The person you refer to as being shady has been selling tractors here for as long as I have been comming to this site, and that is nearly 3 years. If he were the shister you claim him to be, I would imagine others would have spoken up with great frequency, but the fact is that you are the first one to my knowledge who has had a problem. In my opinion, this does not so much make him a crook as it makes you a disgruntled buyer. Without seeing the add, I will only guess that he did not represent the trqctor you bought as being in perfect condition, or that it ran good to great. Most folks would not send money for a used tractor and wait until it arrived to find out how well it ran. Any buyer with the expectations you have would have made the trip to look over the tractor before shelling out the money for the tractor in addition to shipping costs. Shipping costs are a separate issue and most of the time not under the control of the seller, but by the hauler. It would seem to me and I"m sure to others that it does not justify your negative comments by blaming stupidity on someone else. I do know that there are some fine tractors comming from Canada, but be that as it may, I would take the time to make the trip to inspect the merchandise, and I bet the seller would have been glad to allow you to do just that. Remember, the school of hard knocks still charges tuition.

Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
