Lot of good replies to your post. Some I agree with, some I don't. Don't be discouraged. There are many tractors around in my area that guys and ladies say they'll get fixed up but never do. They rot away and it breaks everyone's heart.
There are plenty of people around complaining about the local youngsters not being interested in farming. Completely untrue. The youngsters are there. One party is either not listening or the other party is not loud enough. It's a lethal combination of both usually.
Got plenty of old tractors around. We farm and truck too much to get any real work done on them anymore but whenever Grandpa and Uncle are wanting something new to work on we oblige another project. Recently pulled in my G-Grandfathers best friend's Farmall M. 1939 model. Used it many years for chores but ended up sitting outside after newer tractors came. It's all opened up now. Needs the head worked and other minor things. Uncle's 16 year old step son is showing interest. Thinks about being a mechanic. Tractor might just be given to him if he's serious about giving it attention. G-Grandfathers best friend would be pleased. Loved helping young guys out.
You can't save them all. It's a shame. Save the ones you can.

In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
