So is this tractor vintage or antique?

I know it's beautiful, that's for sure!

But it has its problems.

For one thing, it's all red.

Red is hard enough to paint, but this is all red so it's hard to get the true shape.  Even the engine is red.  It has a little hood over the steering wheel and those fenders are huge.  All those great shapes and only one color.  You have to make lots of varying shades of red to show the shape.

I must have mixed up six or seven shades of red.

This is not something I see everyday from my front door, but during the festival it's here
for everyone to see.
