[AT] Old weathered used-looking tractors

[Easley, Greg]

Paint is nice, but rust has its own appeal.

When I restored the VAC back in '97, I put a very nice (expensive) paint
job
on the sheet metal.  I hadn't even gotten the decals applied when the
first
chip was knocked out of the paint.  

Everything since I've painted in the farm shop for cheap money, or not
painted
at all, and they all look just fine to me.  Correct police can KMA...

Now and then I think about repainting my Farmall M, once I get done with
tinkering on its various mechanical problems.  But the closer I get, the
less I like the idea of painting it.
