So, I've been thinking. Dangerous, but here we go. I have 2 Oliver 77's. One that I use for mostly pulling, but also for a ride or two. I restored it 2 years ago. I'm currently in the process of restoring a wide front 77, that is going to be completely orginal and use mostly for rides. My mom has claimed this tractor for rides (another long story) but she as a friend who thought it would be fun to go on tractor rides and especially the WHO Great Iowa Tractor Ride my home town Osceola, Iowas was the host town last year. But now to the major part of my post. I don't want to add a wide seat as I have seen with other Fleetline Olivers as this take away from the look and orginality. So here is my idea, with the way the hitch is set up that you could take out the regular hitch and make another piece that would slide in it's place with a 2 inch receiver hitch on the end of it. Then some how make a platform with a seat and railing around it, then figure out a way to connect the two, i'm guessing it would be an angle piece. Well that is my idea. Sorry if I'm rambling, if something isn't clear I'll try to clear it up. Or maybe someone has done something different or seen something different. Thanks! -Dan

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
