I personally have cleaned, restored, repainted two antique CASE tractor, two Cub Cadets and some implements . I was faced with the question that I should have just cleaned up, restore and repair, buff the metal and "leave as is". This supposedly retains the "integrity" of the tractor. That is, show the "battle scars of years of use".
I can see two schools of thought here. Some say this keeps the value up for resale.
What is the trend? Or is there a trend?
