Got the new cub running today. Then robbed the parts cub and got steering parts and seat. Gotta get a starter. Had to pull start it.

To bad your so far from me. I have a fresh rebuilt starter that was the starter off my cub. I brought one from a place you told me about and at the same time had this one rebuild. So I have a spare starter
 
I kinda like the grill. I think it might be a recycled cold air return grill from some commercial establishment.

Say Grandpa, did your affinity for all those cubs begin with the cut-away model that was on display at the Montgomery, Alabama Red Power Round-Up? I remember meeting you guys there at the Chapter 21 (South Dakota's chapter) booth. We were promoting our states 2020 Red Power Round-Up. I didn't even get to it,as I was undergoing treatment for cancer while it was going on last year, but I am going to Red Power Round-Up this year in Illinois. Hope to see a lot of folks from your part of the world there. jal-SD
 
Jal-SD, actually it started when I was a kid. Our neighbor had 8-10 acres and asked me and my brother to cut it with his Cub. In exchange we could keep a couple ponies in with his cows. 35 years later we bought our first tractor, a Ford, to clear a piece of property we bought. The next week we bought another one. Then a few weeks later a cub to cut grass. I always wanted cultivators, plows,disk, planter.....for a cub. Somehow got bit by the bug!! I think we have owned 12 cubs still have 7 of them. Sometimes we buy one just to get the package deal. Equipment is cheaper that way. Then that cub gets worked on and sent to a new home. Helps pay for the next one or two. I remember meeting you in Montgomery. We are planning to go to RPRU in '22, I think that's the 75 cub anniversary?

First 2 tractors. And our son with Buc! Our first cub.Put a mower under it and cut a ton of grass with it! We have never paid over $700 for a cub..... We like the ones with issues. Love to see them live again.
