Well, stuff yer long hair up under yer hat, put on yer farmer type clothes and boots, park yer pickup out of the way, but where it can be seen from the house! Go up to the front door and knock or ring the bell. When somebody answers the door, smile, tell them yer name, then ask them if they're thinking of selling or junking that old tractor setting out there behint the barn (or where ever). Tell them yer fixing up one like it and need parts, or that you want to get one to fix up! Impress on them that ya ain't going to restore it and sell it! Tell them you are a "tractor nut" and that you collect tractors, etc. And, don't be in a hurry to leave--make small talk about tractors, but if it looks like the man is busy, then make your leave, thank him for his time, and git! (Works fer me!)
