Okay, okay, okay buuuuut. Here's the thing. It's neglected steel. In Colorado where it snows and they put evil stuff on the snow that eats steel. So if I get it all apart to paint it I can tidy up any developing rust, shoot it full of frame saver even though it's an after thought, and make her pretty again. I think I can find a color scheme true to her late 80s early 90s roots. I'd like to do something two tone and really highlight her lugs.

I highly a doubt a DIY paint job will look that amazing, but I think it will be fun, and parts are way more important than spending $150 plus for paint.

I just thought the tractor colors would be fun since as it stands right now I'm a country girl lost in the city. I have a friend who works at a sign shop and I could get vinyl lettering to make it a New Holland, or International Harvester, etc. I just figure at her advanced age that she's still plugging along like many old tractors I know.
