I can't comment on anything those stores sell now, but I am acquainted with the Bomgaar family. Theirs is an interesting story. The grandfather, Bill, started out during the Depression going farm to farm selling tire patch kits and taking orders for tires and batteries. He would hit the road on a Monday and wouldn't eat until he made a cash sale. That is, he couldn't eat, since he would leave home without any money. After WWII his son, Harold, teamed up with him. During high school in the 60's, I became friends with Harold's son, Roger. There were five stores then spread between Iowa and Nebraska. In the '70's, when most people were wondering if computers were going to catch on, Roger pretty much single handedly computerized the business. Roger's son is 4th generation and now there are 80 stores, two as far west as Idaho.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
