If you heard the above story or something similar once, you probably heard it a million times from the crowds at shows. Isn't it time for we as collectors, enthusiasts or restorers, AKA preservers of history to do something about it. There has to be countless grants and tax credits out there from Uncle Sam for preserving buildings, bridges, threatened wild life or whatever. What is more Americana and threatened than an antique farm tractor? I say if you rescue a piece of antique iron from a fence row or junk yard and restore it at your own expense, there should be a tax credit. Or, how about a federal grant for preserving a tangible piece of our real history? Love to hear back from Y'all.
