About this Episode
This 1944 Oliver 70 includes a rare Raby Cab built specifically for the Oliver 70 tractors. Production numbers are unknown, but its assumed that some where between 25 to 50 of these Raby Cabs were built and sold with the tractors. They added an additional $170.00 in 1944 US dollars or about $2,520 US Dollars today, to the cost of the tractor. The additional cost mixed with hesitant farmers led to the low production numbers. Tim Thurmer from Missouri owns this 1944 model. He shared the story and history on this unique machine.
