I get the decision to sell the tractor. I have swapped out a handful now, and the ones that I kept the least amount of time were the ones that were in the best condition. There were a couple that I 'wanted', but after thinking it through decided they were in too good of shape (little to be done on them!)
Turns out once the tractor is 'done', I dont want it any more so sell it and go find some new complete basket case piece of crap to work on turning around.
So for me, the hobby isnt as much about hoarding a collection as it is about the process of working on the tractor. It goes back to childhood memories of wrenching with my father, and growing up on a farm.
The good news is that I am so slow I dont finish too many in any particular year...
