They Specialize In Oliver Parts SPECIALTY/SERVICES The Korves family never planned on starting a parts business but Oliver tractor restorers all over the world are glad they did “We’re one of the larger suppliers of Oliver parts We have the widest variety and build more reproduction parts than anyone else ” says Mark Korves who started Korves Oliver Parts with his uncle Robert and father Victor 17 years ago The Waterloo Ill farmers owned Oliver tractors and restored them but had a difficult time finding parts Out of need they finally found a couple of sources and started working with companies to create parts just like the originals They renovated and insulated the 1800’s barn on their farm and set up a parts shop “We specialize in late 40’s through late 60’s Olivers ” says Korves “We’re not as familiar with the 4-digit series but as time goes on we’re getting into those too ” Because they are farmers and restorers customers get more than just parts when they place an order “We grew up on Olivers so we know how to install parts A lot of times if you change one part we know you need to change other parts too and we can save people time and aggravation ” Korves says While they have some walk-in customers most of their orders come through phone fax and their website from people all over the world Most are restoring old tractors but a good number of customers still use the Olivers to farm with The Korves’ inventory covers everything from engine blocks to electrical to grills and steering parts Their goal is to sell restoration quality parts that fit and work the first time – at the best price Check out their website for more details Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Korves Oliver Waterloo Ill 62298 ph 618 939-6681; www korvesoliver com
