Oliver Super 77 Diesel

[Tallohiofarmboy]

Hi,

Could someone please help me?

I grew up on a farm where we depended on our trusty Oliver Super 77 Diesel wide front tractor. Now that I'm grown and must live in a nearby city due to my job, I find that I would like to have a 1/16 scale replica of our tractor to set on my desk and remind me of my origins (to keep me humble).

However, I'm having a hard time finding a toy model of an Oliver Super 77 Diesel with a wide front axle. The closest I have come is the SCT241 model from Spec Cast (Super 77 Oliver Diesel narrow front). Can someone replace the front axle on the SCT241 with a wide front axle from another Spec Cast Oliver model for me? I'm certainly willing to pay for the effort.

Thank you,

Mark.

Hello there and welcome to the forum. Unfortunatly I do not think I could do it, but hopefully somebody on this forum can help you out.

I found a super 77 wide front it is a precision #5 and outback toys is selling it...however I do not know if it is a diesel.

Hi Rick,

I got pretty excited when I saw that Precision #5 by Ertl. But, it's a gas engine and the difference is quite noticeable. If I can't find someone to help me with the SCT241 conversion, I may have to settle for the Precision #5.

Thank you for the advice,

Sincerely,

Mark.

Hi Mark... a very warm welcome from me as well mate....

It's not in this lot is it

Mark my sources tell me that there was in 1999 by spec cast an Oliver Super 77 diesel made for the crossroads show, whatever that is, but also there is hope that the diesel model will be remade with updates......I can do a search to see if anyone wants to sell one if they have one....just let me know...

Hi Rick,

The only Olivers I can find that Spec Cast made for the Crossroads, Illinois show were a 440 and 770. If you know of a Super 77 diesel wide front made for that show, please let me know.

Thank you for your help.

Mark.

My source should know if it was made but available now???????/ doubt one could be found to buy..but I can try  got a figure u will pay?

Hmm... these Spec Cast Oliver Super 77 models sell for $39.00. But, I will pay more for one that is rare. Let's see, if it's in mint condition, I'll make it worth your while and pay double ($80.00) plus the postage fee. But, I would have to see a good picture of it first.

Thanks,

Mark.

I would never take any cut or money for my part but i can see if anyone has one for sale....80 dollars is only 40 pounds for you to pay so if one could be found for that price u would do well....lets see if anyone here will part with one....
