Chuck, Thank you for the feedback. "A yuppie tractor?" seems folks driving Suburbans and Navigators wouldn't have much interest in old tractors. First I heard of that description. I'm not a farmer or a yuppie, rather an HVAC Tech with a lot of grass to mow and some snow/gravel to push around. Although the old tractors are great and I understand peoples' interest in their restoration my interest is a more basic: money. Every dollar saved on a tractor buy will roll over to keep an '83 "Farm Use" truck operating. Don't see too many yuppies driving an old Toyota pick up with a wood flat-bed to replace the original that rusted away. I'm not complaining; God has blessed my family generously I simply have to keep within a budget. The old tractors happened to be within that budget. Jim
