On my Mom's farm is a 1938 McCormick-Deering tractor. It came with pneumatic tyres. In 1972 it was driven into the woods, and for most of these intervening years the exhaust, radiator, and gas tanks were left uncovered. When it was pulled out last fall (2006) the tractor rolled and steered freely, but the engine would not budge. The gas tanks are cracked, as is the exhaust manifold and magneto housing; the tyres (tires) are shot as well. Given that it was my Grandfather's first tractor, what would you choose to do with it?
