Unfortunately at this point in history, they are getting more rare than ever. So I have my own personal code: First, it belongs to you. Nobody has the right to tell you what to do with it. (As much as converting tractors to off-road rock crawlers and buggies makes me cringe, the rule still stands). Second, it's far better to modify a tractor and keep it alive than to put it away and never enjoy it. Museum pieces belong in a museum. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
