Merging

[edit]

I have cut-and-pasted the following from this version of the Oliver Corporation article, which now redirects to this article. I will be merging the information below into the article over the next few days.--Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 07:11, 6 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I completed the merge as Aervanath asked me to do it when I asked about the status of the merge. I'm not an Oliver expert, so edit relentlessly. Royalbroil 02:19, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dates

[edit]

The article says: "For the first couple of years, the tractors carried the Oliver-Hart-Parr designation." Can anyone be more specific than that? I've heard the Hart-Parr name survived through 1936. -Freekee (talk) 03:10, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated Refernces

[edit]

The links in the refernces are broken. --Bardi1100 (talk) 23:44, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Old factory in St. Louis?

[edit]

While adding NRHP tags to sites that need them, I stumbled upon a building that was part of the "North Broadway Glass and Plow Warehouse District," which happens to have the name "Oliver" over one of the doors. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 16:01, 22 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any chance this might've been a former Oliver factory?

Cleveland Tractor

[edit]

White Motor Company started Cleveland Tractor (i.e. Cletrac) long before it became a part of Oliver. It seems to me that Oliver may have squired Cletrac with a stock trade to White. This may have been the start of the White takeover in 1960. Corumplex (talk) 02:25, 18 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
