I'm going out on a limb and against the majority LOL, that model would look very sharp with a re-paint. Would not bother me either way, but I also like just as much an unrestored (or un-repainted if there is such a word lol) original. So many different levels of wear, patina and or similar with the finish on one that has it's factory paint. Tells a story like nothing else can. I think if repainted, it needs to be mechanically sound, and all and any leaks repaired. Personally, repainting, for me would not make it a trailer queen, while it would be fun to have one tractor with a ground up restoration, with a nice paint job, that you did not need to use much or want to keep nice, I would not hesitate to use any other that was repainted, would just then clean after use, maintain etc., no different if it was like one you got new, nice to take care of them right from new, so many never did. New paint will command pride by an owner or an operator, though I have seen some that don't care, a well kept machine of any kind usually helps it stay that way if an owner or operator takes pride in what they have or will operate.
Either or, that is a nice one with FWA, looks the part, it is in nice shape and I'll bet very useful just as it is ?
