You really gotta hate it when that kind of thing happens. But I thought it only happened at my house.
My signs are all in good shape... but the tractor is kinda rough... grill and most of the sheetmetal and fiberglass is kinda missing on the front... front axle is cracked... couple of lights are sorta broken... but not from miss use I'm sure. And I got the front steps back together again after totally destroying them a while back... just 'nicked' them with the bucket.
Stuff happens.
Have fun fixing the sign.

Sucks for them but it sure is a beautiful sign, just typical of your beautiful work.

Nancy, will it ever look the same as it did? What would have happened if it was made outa foam? Sure glad the illustration didn't get damaged. Thanks for sharing and inspiring us with such beautiful work.

What OP...was someone out tractor tipping with you on it (was just thinking of the movie CARS!!)
I have never put a tractor on its back but I have sunk one up to its axles in mud. I used to have a sand and gravel business and did set our dump truck on its tailgate for a few minutes. Its a really hard landing when it comes down.
ps. Absolutely love the sign.
