John Deere Tractors

My wife and I are having a disagreement about toys to get kids this Christmas. Before her and I got together she was used to buying her 2 boys the metal replicas of John Deere tractors and such for them to play with. But at a piece and up I think that is way to much to spend on one toy. I believe that they are for collectors and for the people that use them in models and display scale models. She says that the plastic John Deere toys tear up and get broken too easily. What are your thoughts?

My young son is totally into John Deere Tractors. I am thinking about getting a 30 hp antique model to play around on. One that needs some TLC, but not one that needs to be broken in half for a ground up restoration.

If you were going to start with that, with a good stand blasting and coat of paint, ease of finding parts, and ease of entry, what would be a good John Deere tractor to start off with?
The tractor is more for Daddy right now, but would like to be able to have stuff like this in the backyard so I my son progresses, he will have an understanding and appreciation. I am not getting it so he can operate on his own.

I am making a watercolour present for a friend who has a passion for the old, classic John Deere tractors. The problem is, I have never seen one in my life (aside from staring at pictures on the Internet), and I can’t get my sketches to look right. Is there anything I can do?
