| Its always interesting to see tractors sell on ebay. I have bought a few there (UB, G707, and a M602). I would be intersted in the G704 if it were close to Texas. |

| They are only original once. There are plenty of tractors that are too far gone from original that need paint to be restored. I would leave this one alone. What is the serial number? Jeff |

| Never paint a nice original. The originals become more desireable every day. I collect ony originals. I have had nice paint and couldn"t use them but an original you can enjoy. You can paint any piece of junk if you want new paint. |

|  Here is the picture. I bought it on an online auction. I never looked at it. It had a very ugly cab. A small farmer had it from new and took excellent care of it. |

| You have a nice looking one there. That one looks quite good just the way it is. In my opinion, for now I think I would keep it that way. I have an M602 that I have that needs engine work but the rest of the tractor is good shape. Im thinking I might just buff out the paint when I get it fixed and use it that way. You can always paint / restore later but you cant undo them back to original condition as they are now. |
