A person should do whatever makes them happy with their tractor.
If that's a multi-year, multi-thousand dollar, correct-to-the-last-Amelite-grease-fitting, rope it off and don't touch it restoration, fine.
If it's a "hit it with a pressurewasher to blow the cowsh!t off it and take it to the show", that's fine too.
Personally, I have a little trouble figuring out how a person can spend years and a bundle of money chasing parts to make sure the restoration is "correct" and then put an acrylic unobtainium paint job on it that cost more than the original tractor and still think it's "correct", but hey, if that's what floats their boat, fine. It's THEIR tractor.
Mine has more errors than a Florida ballot box, but it runs, it pulls stuff, and it tickles me to play with it, and that's what floats my boat.
