Bob: Others are right, the water will get in around gear shift lever, transmission top bolts and condensation. Just to give you and example, I quite often left Farmall 300 out over night in busy season. If one leaves mufler uncovered one night in heavy rain, there will not be enough watter down the stack to adversely affect the engine. One night My 300 was left out with exaust pipe loose in manifold. Mufler had a tin can over it. Enough water ran down the mufler and pipe to fill two cylinders plus the manifold with water. Water will run down the gear shift lever much the same way. I never like putting hot tractors away in building for night. If one is going to burn, it may as well be one tractor only and without the building.

These old tractors weren't built water proof, and in those days very few people ever left them outside, other when working them every day. Tractors that are working everyday will evaporate a lot of this moisture.
