Actually, you might be surprised at the positive reaction. I've had both my workhorse (a WFE SuperC, aftermarket 3-point, faded paint here, bright touch-ups there, sporadic light rust all over, intermingled with oil and grease) and my baby (a BN rebuilt from stem-to-stern finished off with a deftly applied cover of high-end paint, all the excess stemming from sentimental attachment to a family tractor) out to shows, and they both draw attention fom the folks that care about tractors.

They'll respect the work a machine does but look for any chance to bust a guy's chops after he's put 150 hours or more into restoring what was a dead machine headed for the torch.
Can you guess I don't have much time for them?
Again I say, take your hoss to the show. I think you'll be surprised at the positive interest it gets.
