Picked Up an "O"!!

I picked up an Original today. Serial #59559. Far cry from my old #653 but I like it!!:biggrin2: Sheet metal is in excellent condition I can't believe how nice the hood and seat are. Not currently running but the engine turns free and I don't think it should take much to get it going. Can someone refresh my memory as to what the last serial number for the Originals was?

Thanks Lew, no I actually picked those weights up last weekend. Believe it or not my wife spotted them mounted on an Ariens lawn mower in a guys yard near our local gas station. She said "hey I think those are IH weights" and of course I had to stop and check...sure enough they were! Made a Lew offer and took them home:biggrin2:

A bonus was that 3 out of the 4 bolts holding on the weights were IH:beer2:

Great find Martin, you're on a roll lately. What's up with the new found cub buying at a rapid pace?

Thanks! Well I don't know I really miss some of the O's that I had and have gained more of an appreciation for the other Cubs too. I don't know what going on around here lately but Cubs are popping up everywhere!! I could pick up 2 a day if I wanted to...:biggrin2:
