Ralph,

You're right, that is a nice looking tractor but I am sitting here wondering
what on earth that "contraption" mounted on it is used for.  From the size
of the "bucket" it must have been used to pick up relatively light material
like say loose hay or maybe a half dozen or so small bales.  I can't see the
lift cylinders on it ... but it's hard to imagine it going very high off the
ground.

Now heres a nice looking Oliver 880 but that huge old front end loader makes
