HP,

Oliver is the 'family' name, so it can be a she. Mine is/are (I actually have about ten, but not all 90s).

That one is fitted with a winch (not so common). No strakes, so supposedly not for serious forestry. Would be interesting to know what it was used for. Not original equipment rear wheels, by the looks of them and may be 28".

Mine came with rubber (rears are 30") and a pair of spade lugs, but no electrics.

That one looks like a good example.

When me and my father have finished restoring the motorbikes we have, we have both agreed to start a tractor restoration..
Lovely bits of machinery there.

I have a garden railway "o" guage project sitting in the bee shed..........

There is an auction for 10 classic tractors... some restored in Launceston in the next couple of weeks
SWMBO has put me on a curfew!

Lovely old girls, There are so many rotting away in barns and would love to restore one my self but farmers want so much for them these days but are still an ideal work horse for the small holder. I am doing a service tomorrow for a friend

I do appologise madam, very sorry could not tell. ( its hard if the lumpy bits arn't clear to see and long hair helps) you would not belive how many time i can get it wrong, especial on a train when i come out with the classic, " excuse me please sir i want to get past" so now i aim for a polite "shift"

so does yours have a winch on the front or rear, seams like she might have been chained to a stump to pull the logs out of the woods.
