1210 rebirth. (1282 tribute.LOL!!!)
 
Last summer my 1210 had caught on fire. It burned the paint on the hood pretty bad and melted lot of wires and the decals. I got discouraged when I got it fixed and running again, because I couldn't find any decals for the 1210. I tossed the ideas around and on a previous post here, I found out that the 1210 and the 1282 were extremely similar except for the red vs. yellow /white paint scheme. I didn't want to desicrate the red series by making it a red one, so I used a 1282 decal set and painted it just like the red series only I used glos black. Tell me what you think?

Before picture....(I didn't have one after it burned.)

That looks awesome. The gloss looks perfect with that 1282. Reminds me of what a demonstrator version would look like kind of like the big farm tractors.

Grampie 04-07-2013 06:47 PM

I thought these were suppose to be yellow and white? I see a little yellow on it though...
Nice and shiny though.

BTW the decal kit for the hood is still available.

ramman16248 04-07-2013 08:04 PM

Thanks guys. I know it may be hot in the summer.LOL!!! If the decal kit for the 1210 is available, I didn't find it. When I got the idea of the black 1282, I admit I didn't look as hard. LOL!!!

1811woody 04-27-2013 01:44 AM

The black looks cool :beerchug: But odd when you think of it being a black cub. It looks like you have quite a talent for painting!

cubfixer 04-27-2013 04:35 PM

Very, very nice! Looks great! :beerchug:

Majic brand from Tractor Supply. Just make sure you use the matching reducer. Their hardener is what really makes this thing shine. I didn't bother to use the hardener in the inside if the side panels, and there is a big difference between the inside and outside panel finishes. So far I like their products better than the previous Valspar brands.

Tim.E 05-01-2013 10:37 PM

Is that IH white or just plain white on the wheels and deck? Looks super cool,BTW!!!!!!!!!!

ramman16248 05-02-2013 01:56 PM

The white was done with leftover IH white from Valspar (Tractor Supply). Thanks!!

LAWN BOY 06-22-2023 11:01 PM

I like the look of that black. I might paint one like that someday now that the idea is in my head.

Farmall450 06-23-2023 09:51 AM

Not my thing, but I think it looks killer nonetheless.

There was a purple cub for sale at AJ's this May that looked pretty decent.
