We can see from the pic and if we would look at the tractor probably would find more stuff that isnt oroginal so why keep posting about my tractor won first prize just what kind of a show and who did the judging sure didnt knbow their tractors. Some of us on this site know what was original and wasnt just wonder what kind of a "CONTEST"your group is running.
I don't know how all tractor shows are judged, but in car shows there is a "concours" class where everything had better be absolutely original, right down to the type of paint used.

Congratulations on a great looking old tractor! I'd be proud of it too.
