Chris I hate to tell you that while you where legal that doe not make you any safer. A small red tail light is not enough warning with the faster road speeds of today. Then you add in driver attention issues and your asking to be hurt!!! On older equipment that does not have a flashing rear light I use a magnetic flashing light anytime I move on a public highway. The ones I use are about $50 but they only use 4 AA batteries and they last for hours. So if your tractor is fully restored just take a cloth rag and put it under the magnets and they will not scratch the paint.
Right does not over come might!!! If that truck had hit you it would have caused you a serious injury. So there would not have been much comfort in being "right/legal".
Be safe man there are idiots and just normal people that could easily hit you at dark on an older tractor. People are used to seeing the newer well lit up tractors/equipment.
