Hi I saw a post similar to this one not too long ago. I am getting a Super A and it appears to have its original paint although someone has redone the decals with paint. There seems to be quite a lot of paint left on the tractor. Do you guys think I should leave it as is or paint it? Thanks.

As pretty as new paint is, I really prefer original even with the bumps scrapes and wear. That's the way I keep my SA. I used a scratch remover cleaner to shine mine up. Really helps the appearance. In choosing a cleaner get one without any wax in case you want to paint later. A tractor kept in a shed really does not need any wax.

I have a International 560 with original paint and am thinking about using a rubbing compound to brighten it up.----------- What do you experts think, will it work OK??????????

I'd be very careful what you use to polish the paint. Given the age of it, a rubbing compound may take the paint off. Try something that doesn't have any abrasives in it, like a clay bar or Meguiars Deep Crystal System Step 1 Cleaner. Whatever you use, try it in a hidden area first so you don't ruin the paint.

1935 John Deere BN History - The History of My Tractor - by Alexander G. Knox. My grandfather, Orval A.

It was his first new tractor and his first with rubber tires. He used it on his farm growing cotton, alfalfa, corn, wheat, milo, barley, and oats. My father, Norman L.
