Yes to all of your points. Space to work, storage, cost, parts, they all add up. A nice shinny car and most folks dont even blink. A big red, green, orange tractor and plow or haybine.. oh boy. Several of the shows around me are the same thing over and over. I set up smaller displays at two shows a year and try to have various items every year. Way too too many hobbies. I also like to talk to people and explain things. You are correct that the farmer today is maybe 2% of the population and people going to a "fair " want to pet some animals with their kids, eat some junk food, ride some rides, get a baloon animal and go home. They could care less about farm machines. Now 60 years ago when maybe 40% of the population had something to do with farms. Today many people at shows that display just sit in their lawn chaires and B,s with themselves and ignore people walking by. Even worse, they set 5heir stuff up and just go home. Might be there 5he day before opening to set up, and then are streaming out the gate at noon on the last day.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. 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.
