Years back when my Dad was about the age I am he lost his wallet but wasn't sure when or how but had a hunch it happened when he was checking out a tractor he had rented to a contractor at a job site at a local college. Assuming it was gone for good, he got a new license, credit cards, SS card etc. and canceled all the old stuff. Almost 1 year later he gets a phone call one night, a young girl asking him some questions. It seems she was jogging on the track at the college, slowed to a walk to cool down and got off the track to let others go by and stumbled on something in the dirt. Curious she dug at it with her foot and unearthed my Dad's wallet with money and all still inside. She took it home and asked what to do and was advised to try to find the owner of which she did. The interesting part of this story, she was a foreign exchange student from Japan. Dad went to pick it up and handed her a 100 dollar bill, more than was in his wallet. She refused it telling him she was so thankful for her opportunity for an education in America and that was good enough. He gave the money to the college the following day in her name. Yet another reason I am proud of my Dad, and the reason I'm the person I am today.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
