That 70 would be from 1937-1948. That same tractor was offered in Canada as a Cockshut and the only difference was cream colored wheels instead of red. That guy likes my favorite truck and tractor. I wish I could drop by with you one day. I know a guy in this area who is seriously into Olivers. He's got the dealer signs up on his barn and has at least one of anything Oliver built...even a combine! They were special tractors from an era when all tractors were great.
