It's sad that shows have come to this. I know
exactly what you mean. A man shows a JD "A" at one
of the local shows. Every nut and bolt has been
chromed. Everyone talks about how great an idea
this is, however, I don't think JD ever sent a
tractor from the factory with all chrome nuts and
bolts. Car shows are worse. I know of several cars
that have more money invested in them than they
will ever get back. I know of a 68 Mustang that
was bought for $32,000 and the new owner invested
another $22,000 in it. Nothing rare, just a 68
Mustang. My tractors go to the shows in their work
clothes. I do have some that are very nice, but
most of them earn their keep around here. As for
the Charger. I am often criticized for allowing my
daughters to drive it. It shows the marks of
teenagers and life on the streets. They have
learned to care for their own vehicles with this
car. Many people tell me I should never let the
girls drive this vintage car. Maybe I shouldn't,
but their not any fun if all you do is look at
them and I can always fix the car. It was an
excellent tool for rewarding them for their
accomplishments. In our world "money talks" and we
are stuck with it.
