The has town has an annual festival which includes a car show. This year they want to include a display of vintage tractors. They want to award trophies in classes prior to 1940, 1941 to 1960 and to "Best of Show". I believe that making the show competitive takes the fun out of it. Some people put in many hours work with minimal equipment and facilities while others pay professionals to do eveything to include an automotive paint job.
I not going to get wrapped around the axle for those who will pay money not to get dirt under their finger nails, but I don't want to compete with them. For two or three thousand dollars I could have a trophy winning tractor by the end of the week, but I would'nt enjoy it. Should tractor shows be a display of individual personal pride and accomplishments or a competition for trophies? K-Mo

I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
