The one that burnt us the most was an Oliver 1755 diesel w/ a loader. It seemed to like sitting in the shop a whole bunch.
Wouldn't start in the winter so dad had the top end rebuilt to up the ocmpression. Started great for another 2 years then started getting harder to start again. Lost the clutch while chopping corn, the brakes blew the seals while plowing, a few years later while using it to load the spreader, the transmission locked up and had to be replaced with one form an 1855. I think it got a new shift fork right before that too. The next year the engine gave up.
Now we've got an 1855 that's a great runner, and the 17 is still behind the barn and I'm gonna fix it one of these years.

Had to just walk away and come back after an hour....
