    Working on fixing up a 550 myself. Just ordered the same front tires for mine.

      Awesome! I am very please with the tires. The little 550 is my favorite Oliver. Lots of power in a small package.

      @shopdoc most of the painting is completed, rims and grill are next. Your tractor is beautiful!!! Mine is a 1960. I prefer the grill that you have.

    Hello there, my friend. You're doing wonderful things. I enjoy following you. I am also an owner of an Oliver 550. Can you help me with spare parts ?

      Kent Gordon is in Palestine, TX, and he probably has all the parts you'll need or he'll give you the right answers. He can be reached at 903 729 8349. Also Korves Oliver is good for many new parts and some used...618-939-6681

    Great build I enjoy that kind of work. I watched your flying over the fog video, were you in a Ultra lite? It looked like your feet were dangling in front of you.

    • @shopdoc
      @shopdoc  Před 11 měsíci

      It is a powered parachute attached to a trike so that is where your feet rest. It's actually a buddy of mine flying that! He sent me the video and I told I had to upload it.......just too cool!

      I use to fly a Kolb Ultrastar ultra lite, so the view looked very familiar

      Very cool! I am flying an Aerotrek A240 in preparation for my upcoming checkride.

      I got my private pilots license about 30 years ago. You know what they say, if God had meant man to fly he would have given him more money.

      You might try this video. You may be describing something similar to what my friend had. His was a hydrotrans leak at the hydraulic pump.

      Thanks!! I looked at this video earlier but did not see the original leak. I’m gonna remove that plate today to see where it is leaking from.

    • @sylkied
      @sylkied Před 2 měsíci

      Ok took plate off and found half of a ring. Any ideas where to purchase where it could have come from and what’s involved to fix. I’m sure I may have to follow the video but any ideas of location would be awesome!!
