My value on this earth is that I can be productive. When I stop adding to the good in this world, I'll be ready to ship out. Tractor's are the same in my book. Unless they are adding by existing as preserved history, they either work the fields or fall apart. I have an early '38 AC-B that's my favorite tractor and a mid 60's MF-2135 that works like a mule. I recently had asphalt paving done and when the owner of the asphalt co. saw my Massey with the front loader, he called his equipment manager out to look at it..... "THAT's what I've been looking for. We could use a tractor like that." It was music to my ears. The old girl is still catching the eye but not as an antique, she has real value because she can pull her weight in a competitive market.
