A story that would be a shame to cover up with the new paint. So to me the real beauty is in the old worn original work clothes they were born with, unless it was already butchered up with a 1/2 a#$ paint job.
Amen Todd... I think Allen has the same theory and I share it also.

It's honest wear and tear and looks good on a working tractor
