I'm going to concur with the majority here. The best thing for you to do is decline the position. There is nothing more determental to this hobby then "judging", because the end result is "he who has the deepest pockets - wins". I am a second generation collector, and I know that of all the tractors my family and I have collected over the years, not one of them is "Best of Show" quality. And I could care less. I'd much rather see tractors and equipment of that vintage running, and driving, than a bunch of "trailer queens." If you want to give out awards, give them out for the equipment that traveled the farthest to get to your event, or something of that nature. I think the owners would appreciate that much more.
