off color but cool. Should I?

Went by to see a guy I know on the way home today. He was over at his dad's place. His dad was a big red guy. Has some really nice ones. 460 Wheatland, 560 gas, 560 diesel, 660 diesel that is NECK DEEP in rubber, 3 cubs, a C or two, 404, two hs, an M, and various others. What really got my attention was the F-12 under the shed out back. It has steel on the rear, and a single front on rubber. In pretty bad shape, but mostly there. Rims all seem to be serviceable. Engine will need everything done. I'm sure it's stuck, though I didn't try rocking it. Radiator is missing, as is the mag, and the carb. Wasn't able to stay long, but he did say that he was going to finish restoring the ones that his dad had history with or a particular fondness for. The rest would be for sale. I didn't ask if he wanted to sell the F-12, but i'm thinking I might. What do ya'll think? Do I dare put red in the shed here at the Adams residence?

The F12 is kinda cute, but for all practical purposes it is useless. The top speed is about 3 3/4 MPH. If you are gonna show it only, it would be fun. But, if you want to pull a wagon or use it for field work you will be disappointed.

It's amazed me that the tube from the air cleaner to carb. goes threw the top radiator tank. That might be a hard item to find.

Redline, after looking at yours, I realize that an F-12 still looks like it's half-dressed, even when it has all of it's parts attached. I'll stay with the orange for now.

all bottom end engine parts for f-12s and f-14s are still available sleeves pistons and all crankshaft bearings are interchangeable with A and B farmalls so that helps I have a 12 and a 14 and for anythinhg other that parades or show they are useless and difficult to start.
