I remember looking this up on the interwebz one time the subject came up here before.
Found a very informative site.
Of course we all know the tractor Oliver is driving in the opening of the show is a John Deere GP. If you look close there is also a Farmall M by a shed in one of the arial shots of the opening also. The borken down tractor Oliver bought from Mr Haney was a Hoyt-Clagwell (more in a bit on that)

Ralph Monroe was the Carpenter who was sweet on Kimball.
