Overland Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 It looks a bit like the Oliver tractor logo. Perhaps they had a run at boat motors? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SeaDawg Posted August 12, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 12, 2019 John, that's a very cool find. And looks pretty mint. I never knew about Oliver tractor's brief foray into the marine world. From what I read, they took over Chriscraft's motor, and improved on it. Eventually, made some really snazzy fiberglass cowls. But, their venture ladted only about a decade. http://www.pfs-ware.com/Articles/oliver_art6.htm 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar.
