Life is no rehearsal. You only get one shot at it. And in 100 years what will it matter? Unless you did something spectacular it won't matter. One of my brother in laws destroyed his health working too much. 18-20 hour days. His heart is working at about 60%. And he got told not to work so many hours by a doctor. More than once. But every time work said "we really need you"...... and for what? Who'd gonna care in 100 years, or even 50? He had a real need to feel he was important. Now he feels worthless.
What are you going to do? I can name a lot of things. Hunting, fishing, play with old tractors? Live in town? Gardening, old car/truck, model building, scale trains, wood working? Visit far flung family! You can find a lot to keep busy. Nothing says you have to sit in front the TV. Heck take up cooking or needle point for that matter! For most of us there are plenty of younger people waiting and willing to take over from us at work. All in all we just are not that important except to our loved ones.

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.
