We featured two Oliver 1850s on a Facebook #TwoForTuesday and created some buzz around these well-loved machines.

The 1969 Oliver 1850 sold by D Equipment Auctions in Colorado brought in a final price of $13,650.

Specs for this Oliver 1850 include:

• Hours: 7,147
• HP: 102
• 2WD
• Rear PTO
• More: Newer rubber with the beads still on all tires. Fuel tank fenders. Shed kept. The paint is all original with only a few minor touch ups. Original decals. Original fire extinguisher that mounts on the front weights.

In this tractor’s 54 years, it’s only had two owners. It was bought new in 1969 and sold to the second owner in 1994. The original owner overhauled the engine and replaced the clutch at 5,740 hours in 1992. In the last 10 years, the tractor was only used to blade a 1/3 mile driveway 3-4 times a year.

The second Oliver 1850 featured in the pair on Facebook was sold by Booker Auction Co. in Washington for a price of $3,355.

Specs for this Oliver 1850 include:

• Hours: Unknown
• HP: 102
• 2WD
• Rear PTO

This machine is a contrast to the well-kept Oliver and it’s reflected in the final sale price due to less history, fewer available specs, and more overall wear.
