I guess I would fall into the last one too, I cannot own something I don't use. If I can't use it, why have it? It has to be ready to run when I climb on it, if it's not I repair it so it ready to go. If I do make modifications from the original then I do my very best to make them look like Factory, or the changes made can be easily undone to return it to factory. What ever the changes I make, makes this tractor work better & easier for me & which means this tool is better for what I Intend to use it for. I don't try to fix something that isn't broke, if there is something I hear that doesn't sound or feel right , then I tear into it to see why. Many things we use on the farm are not politically correct to the tractor police. Wait till you see the 44 Model A I am resurrecting... But it will be useful tool or it won't be on the farm. New paint & decals are the very last & most critical part of restoration, but by no means is it the most important. When I decide to give them paint, that only means I can't find anything else I choose to change or make better for my needs.
