I, personally, do not have a satellite dish, so i don't get to see RFDTV, but my Father does, and he loves the Classic Tractor programs... I try to stop in when it's on. Very Good program. Going along with what Dana said earlier, I think that if you do a restoration program, I think you need to base it on a "shade tree restorers" perspective. Have your project tractors be one that you would have to go find used parts for, or find substitues for. Give the project a budget, and have it in a setting other than a immaculate workshop chocked full of tools. I think you would gain a much bigger audience that way. Something that everyone can relate to. You may do segments on making your own gaskets, different methods for repairing stuck pistons, etc. I'm excited to see this program when it comes out.
