Never mind the terminology - here in Britain they are 'new', 'classic' 'vintage' and (cars)'veteran'. When we call them an antique is probably when they can't be run and just put on display. Anyhow I was going to comment that an awful lot of the really old and now collectible tractors became 'junk' many years ago. It was just that farmers didn't like to sell/scrap anything, then eventually here we are, buying up all this 'junk as was' for spares or repair to keep a few of them running! What a hobby can do for saving our heritage has been quite astounding! Long may it continue.RAB
