I saw a picture of an OC3 with a small box attached under the seat. On my OC3 there is abracket welded to the bottom of the seat. Did the OC3's come wit a tool box or some other attachement that went under the seat?

I have seen one on an HG in exactly that position. No idea of it was factory or after-market though. Useful for hitch pins etc.

All pan seats came with a bracket for a small tool box that slid onto the bracket you're referring to.  I'm not sure if the box seat with the back rest came with a tool box mount.  Zimmerman's, in southern PA makes a reproduction box. :D

That's interesting. I've never seen the tool box on any tractor.

I found an OC3 on ebay that has a picture of the tool box which is how a figured out that it must have been something important. Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/1952-Oliver-OC-3-Cr ... 43a0bf168b
Thank s for the help.
