Paul: Of course we've got you figured out--welcome to the club! By some strange and wonderful coincidence, the vast majority of the inhabitants of this forum have the exact same feeling for their old tractors. I'd love to restore the tractor that I learned to drive on (at the tender age of 7) but the problem is, it's still being used daily by my folks and younger brother on the farm.... Instead of a '42 Farmall A, I'm restoring a '45 that I rescued from a junkyard last winter. As with you, this is intended as a working (though probably not as hard as it once did) tractor rather than a museum piece and any time I spend with it is a wonderful stress reliever. The knowledge that I've saved a little bit of American rural history from the car crusher is just gilding on the lily.
