This isn't political,don't anybody think that it is,but here in Michigan the economy has completely colapsed. Every day another company anounces that they are leaving,we have 15% unemployment in the once thriving and growing county where I live,and God help me I love it! If I wanted to live in the city around city people with their city ways I'd move to one. Thank God in heaven we have a repreve. Homes are being abandoned,property values are tanking,realtors are giving up and aren't even going to the office. I should feel guilty for feeling this way,but nobody cried for me when the last grain elevator and last major line implement dealer closed in what is still a mostly rural county. I walk out the door every morning to do chores with a smile on my face. It is dead silent out there. No traffic on a road that 10 years ago was so bad,honest to God there were times I would give up trying to get across to the mail box. I still get homesick for the south and hate this weather,but with everybody going there and leaving here,the urge to go isn't near as strong as it used to be. I just can't tell you how light hearted I feel to be getting the rural lifestyle back after being so near to loosing it right in my own home.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
