Interesting you should be saying all this my friend. I remember being 15 years old and scraping the oil cake crude off this very same tractor thinking " I would really like to restore this the right way for Grandpa".
Now here I am 54 years old and just getting to it. Here too are all the questions like ..why ? .. what for ? .. because it's been good medicine. Just the long lost memories that have come trickling back doing what little I have, has been well worth the price of admission and any effort on my behalf.
Something about a career and raising a family that takes up a LOT of time. Life just gets really busy sometimes. I think I must be on the recovery from the 'empty next syndrome' and focused a lot of that energy into an old tractor.
My heart goes out to you on your son ... I couldn't even begin to imagine how tough that must be. Keep the faith.
