Was thinking last night. Over time, some tractors had engines replaced, transmissions replaced, wheel arrangements
changed (narrow to wide), numerous parts from other donor tractors replace, or new/old stock parts added, or
reproduction parts added. This is happening more and more as they were nursed to get buy from previous owners in
their working lives, or when someone orders boxes of reproduction part to restore their tractor.
Someone stated here several years ago; "the handle was replaced 6 times, and the head 2 times, but it's still
Grampa's axe".
At what point is a tractor NOT legitimately a 19XX tractor anymore?
Let the discussions begin.......
