1950 Farmall Cub

I have always wanted a Cub. I finally found one, only about 10 miles from my house, and brought it home Saturday. A friend of a friend of a friend was selling it. It was bought new by a local dairy farm, then the property it’s on was separated and the tractor stayed with it. I drive by there twice everyday, I had no idea it was in the barn. It last ran about 5 years ago, and has been parked inside, so shouldn’t be too hard to get it running. For 72 years old, it’s in pretty good shape. I think most of the paint is original. It came with a bunch of attachments, but I have to wait for the ground to dry up some before I can go back for them, can’t get the trailer close enough to the barn they are in. For now I just got the plow blade and a few parts that were small enough to carry.

Congrats! I grew up on my dad's Cub Lo-Boy, and definitely want one someday.

Great find! That is a very nice old tractor....love all of the attachments too!
Hope you get it running soon.

Looks like you will be having 2 Christmas this year

Thanks Beth. I’m hoping to have it running in time for spring maintenance on our dirt road.

More like an early birthday present to myself, since that’s in 2 weeks.

Thanks Ken. If you’re ever in PA, stop and see it. Until then, I’ll keep the pictures and updates coming.

Yeah, they would. Unfortunately I don’t have a good place to put a garden big enough to use it in.
