The Oliver 60 series of row-crop tractors was a product line of agricultural tractors produced from 1940 to 1964 by the Oliver Farm Equipment Company. The 60 series was a four-cylinder follow-on to the six-cylinder Oliver 70. As the 70 was outsold by the less-expensive Farmall A, Allis-Chalmers Model B and John Deere Model B, Oliver introduced the 60 to compete.
The 60 was followed by the Oliver 66, Super 66 and 660, each with incremental changes and upgrades, and was produced until 1964.

The 60 inherited the 70 Fleetline's styling, with fully enclosed bodywork and a swept-back radiator grille. Versions were produced for row crops with narrow front wheels, standard models with a wide front axle, and an industrial version. Engines could be obtained for gasoline or kerosene/distillate fuels.
