Me, too, but identify that tractor for me, Flusher, because I don't recognize it. Is that an old Ford without the hood? Whatever it is, it sure looks neat and clean.

It's my 1964 MF-135 diesel still being restored. Just don't have the sheet metal on it yet. It's an orchard tractor that has those wide, squat rears.
I need to replace the vertical exhaust stack since there's an interference with the hood sheet metal. Need to reroute the fuel line to the injector to get this problem solved. Haven't gotten around to that fix yet. Maybe next month.

One thing that I'd want to do is to have something behind me in case the chain snaps. My father once pulled our 1957 Olds with a chain. Chain snapped and wrapped back onto the hood of the car. Could have easily snapped and wrapped back to the back of my father on the tractor.
If you have ROPS, attach a piece of plywood between the ROPS?
