When I look at a perfectly restored tractor I look at the talent and perseverance of the restorer. The actual machine itself means very little to me. The person who did the restoration is a human with feelings, the machine is just cold hard steel, and I have stated that before. When I do a restoration, or my version of a restoration I try to do the perfect job but often times my lack of talent and money get in the way. This F20 I am slowly working on will be as shiny as a fancy street rod if I get my way. I am not doing it to show off but instead I am doing it to test my ability and hopefully improve my ability. The last one was shiny, now this one will be shinier yet.
That said, I am far from trying to be the correct police. The correct police are merely covering up their inadequacies by pointing out someone else's not quite flawless job.
When I had the job of lining up tractors at our local threshing show I would always find something interesting to point out about someone's newly arrived tractor. The tractor could be as mismatched and rusty as can be but I would find something complimentary to say about it. I could almost always make that person smile by the time we got the tractor parked in line. I'm getting a little off subject here, but it's all about the human aspect, the person behind the machine.
