Here's a few...

'61 Original lookin' real good
My first repaint, a 70
The other O with all the goodies
a 72 repowered with a 10hp
a 73 with a 3pt

I've always loved the 7hp tractors. Over the years I've had 14 of them, including these four.

Good looking tractors guys!

Not the pretty-ish picture I have of my cub. But this is my beloved Cub Original.
One day I'll give it a paint job, but for now it looks good. I'm amazed at what the 7hp will do!

i have a few

my 71, 72 and the 71 that i need to restore that was my pop pops.

Here's my 72....

Nice pics guys....I've always liked the O, 72 and 73. I've envisioned the best look for an O is AGs, fenders and tri rib front tires.

What I find most interesting about this thread is that we are talking about "7HP" unlike the "20-30" so called HP stuff from today that blow up at 50 hours. Something to be said for old school. Keep em coming guys. :beerchug:

What he ^^^ said!!! Keep them coming. These pictures are awesome!!

finally got around to it, here's a few of my 72 with a k301 repower.

she's 1 1/2 now, but I don't have any pictures with her on the tractor, she prefers riding in her wagon behind.

cadzag, that's cool! I have another 71 that I didn't post pictures of. It's an heirloom too. It was my granddads. He bought it new in..... 68? (I don't remember if the year is right.) My dad was just a kid. When I put a motor back in it, it will be engine number 4. It got "well used" on our farm. :biggrin2:

Under edit: First motor (obviously) 7hp. Second motor 8HP. Third motor 10HP. Now..... should I continue the tradition and go 12? Or go back original? I'm leaning toward either putting the 10 back in, or going 12. I'm more of an HP guy (bigger/more HP= better)..... I'm leaning toward a 12.

Thanks! My dad was working for an IH dealer as a repair guy before I was born, someone brought it in as a trade with a motor that, as he put it, was to worn out to rebuild. He cobbled together a k301 out of parts laying around, including a bent crankshaft at the PTO end. It's had an exciting life, including a rollover that broke the cast grille and going up in flames when the tank solder failed and a full tank of fuel poured on top of the hot engine. Melted the head it was so hot! Both of these events happened before I was born, or before I was able to remember it anyways. I try to take good care of to repay it for all it's hard work. Hoping to restore it with my daughter when she gets a little older.
