| About Oliver TractorsThe Oliver Farm Equipment Corporation was formed in 1929 after the merger of
the Oliver Chilled Plow Company, the Hart-Parr Company, Nichols & Shepard Company
and the American Seeding Machine Company. It was later known as the Oliver Corporation.
Beginning in 1930 Oliver built the 4-cylinder Oliver 18-28 tractor. This was a
severe departure from the two-cylinder engines used in the Hart-Parr tractors.
Many follow-on models were produced over the years, including the very popular
60, 70, and 80 models. In 1948 a new fleetline series was introduced which
included the 66, 77 and 88 models.
Oliver was acquired by the White Motor Corporation in 1960.
