Wow-what a find!! No, don't paint it if you want to keep the special value that an orginal has.. A lot of tractors get restorations that feature paint jobs of much higher quality, both in the paint and the degree of perfection of the job which result in the appearance of a tractor never made. And making the tractor look like you want it(and can afford it)is half the fun, But-keep the tractor original as long as you can. Don't paint it or add un-authentic options like three point hitches or other gadgets to make the tractor more versatile unless you're tired of it like it is or you have a genuine need to use the tractor and modifying it would be practical and make it easier to operate and more efficient. Once its painted or altered with other than original options it's not orginal any more. But, it's up to you-it's your tractor.
