I had a chance to visit Dirty Steve today. We are part of the upstate NY Cub collectors contingent and are about 1 hour's drive apart. Steve had an 1811 that was giving it's life so other Cubs could live on, and he offered me the carcass when he was done harvesting his needed parts. There was still plenty of meat on the bones. Steve kept the M18 Kohler and the tinwork along with a few small trinkets. I got the frame, complete rear axle, front axle, steering tower, and dual hydraulics!
My 1512 has a busted rear so now I have a complete rear axle assembly ready for install and the steering tower/dash with the dual hydraulics are destined for my 782.
Steve was a gracious host and gave me a tour of his family's four generation 1000 acre farm! Wow! Beautiful new equipment and some great classic IH tractors too. Thanks Steve!
