Don't want to throw a wet blanket on it,but an old guy just south of here died on a VAC Case. It was the only tractor I ever knew him to have,but he went down through a ditch one time to get in to a field and it flipped over backwards on him.

My uncle had one. He bought it so he could make a fork lift out of it. He needed it to move cement blocks as he had a block machine on the farm for extra income.

The forks were mounted on the back, seat turned around and off to the side so you could shift with your left hand. Steering wheel was gone, you steered with a pipe that stood between your legs. He rigged the clutch linkage somehow to work backwards and the pipe ran a hydraulic valve to control a cylinder he rigged for steering. It moved many cement blocks.

Well, Larry, this is my Case Flambeau letter series Case toy display on the wall of our family room.
Just a bit of a funny story about plowing with a VAC14 up on the farm.
I was plowing with a Eagle Hitch 2-14 BER plow in a field on the edge of a steep pasture. The plow caught on a rock and unhooked as it was designed to do. Once the plow pulled out of the stinger, it proceeded to roll all the way down the pasture slope to a swamp. I ended up going back to the farm and getting a chain to pull it back up where I could rehook to it.
"That's my story and I'm sticking to it !!!"

The VAI is the industrial version of the VA Series. VAC is the cultivator or row crop version. They also made a VAS which has the offset engine and transmission like the Farmall A.

No pics, unfortunately, but back in 1961 (10 yrs old) I was head over heels in love with the new gen egg crate grill Olivers. I had a 1/16th scale Oliver 1800 (checker-board) and plow and disc etc. Used to have my own little farm out by the grain bins . Spent many hours out there "farming" in between our real farming chores. Later grew up making a living in auto industry but now retired and back to ole tractors. Just not Oliver this time. Still would love to have a 1950 T or 2255 FWA

Larry, I really like my 51 VAC. I pulls my Ford disc very well. I can't believe how stout it is.
