An original un-restored good running tractor is very often peferred to one that got a rattle can over paint. Fix as many little things as you can, like the way it starts and runs, the way the lights are pointed and do they work. A battery box would help alot, the generator should work.

A buyer will pay more for one that is internally sound, or they think is sound, and get skittish quickly if they think there is any kind of coverup. Build on your post about the wheels-ie. a good reason for them to be there, like pulling in mud etc. Big shows can be a good place to sell but not always because you don't know who else will be selling what.
