Interesting OC6

[Jim Leap]

Hello Everyone,

Saw this "modified" OC6 in my neighborhood and thought I would post a few photos. It has a "replacement" engine - not the original Flathead and has extensions putting the track frames out wide. Probably was set up for row crop work since it has narrow tracks. Seems to be a stout, simple and powerful machine. I am an HG guy so haven't paid much attention to the OC6 but was impressed with the fact that the clutch housing seems to be integral with the frame eliminating the need for a "bell housing". Seems that set up would make engine swaps easier. Anyway thought you might enjoy seeing this machine.

The OC 6 used the same engine as the Oliver 77 tractor.  That colour would indicate that the engine came from a 77 tractor so is the correct engine for the OC 6.
