One of the reasons that drove me to restore my 149 was simply to save a piece of this era of American history. I could have bought a new machine down at the home improvement store for what I paid to restore the 149. But I wouldn't have had 1/10th of the machine and it wouldn't still be around in another 40 years.
IH Cubs are not throw away and replace technology and design. They are work, fix and continue to work technology and design. Says something about the mentality of today's society doesn't it?
If you want to talk about being green (recycling) IH Cubs are truly the greenest - you don't find many cluttering up the dumps and junk yards do you?
