I'd rather have tools that I don't need, than not have the tools I do need.

That's a fair bit of pudding on the old Butterbox.

Thanks for the pics MMP.
IIRC the C1 coupe was a one off for the NZ International sales rep.

Pretty normal for the day I guess, but hard not to look and go bloody hell, It was probably like the Commer Knockers and made that much noise you thought you were flying until some kid passed you on a push bike.

South Bound I seam to recall the sign said it was made for a doctor in Invercargill

And yeah I could be wrong and writting needs more proof reading

"A serious little coupe" was what I meant to write

The way Im going I will need to get Swishman to proof read it first

My old ACCO1830B loaded up and ready to head to a rally with a David Brown 30c, International W4 and  a Howard 2000 
 
and with the mighty Oliver, I fear I was overloaded carrying it but I was never pulled up.

A bloke I worked for near Bundaberg bought a 4x4 Oliver like this, a fuel tank in each mudguard

It was a 4 stroke motor and was a beautiful smooth motor, really really smooth 

Most of the the ones I have seen have a GM 53 series motor which I don't particularly like 

I reckon this Oliver would still be were I worked 

I got the job of driving it back in from near Gin Gin

The farm owner gave me strict instructions about gears etc

I was just crawling along
I searched around a bit for a better gear and found a good road gear and zoomed along really quick

I felt it was a very underrated tractor
