Mr Ron, a couple questions:

First, why no grille on the Super M?

How bad was the vision? Could you see if the plow was plugging?
That Oliver was pretty good in trash for it’s time, but I am sure it was not perfect.

Hard spots. If you got in a hard spot, could you stop the outfit, then shift the front tractor down and pull thru?
Maybe you had enough smoke that hard spots were not a problem.

Did you say a few bad words if a bottom tripped?

Was the Super M stock? Or did it have M&W pistons. Maybe one of those stroker cranks I have heard about.

I use to think a special built tractor was needed for the back one.
Low to the ground, so you could see over it.
Maybe a Torque-convertor to match the speed of the front tractor.
And a great big fuel tank and a pump to send fuel to the front tractor.
And a nice Jimmy Diesel for power.

Thanks for the e-mail.
