Default Cub Cadet 128 restoration

Hello! I figured I would make a restoration thread for my Cub Cadet, partly to share the progress with you guys but also to maybe get some assistance if needed since I'm very green on these little tractors.

This is probably going to be a quite slow resto since I have a bunch of other projects I need to get done as well this winter (77 Scout, 64 Polara 426, 58 Edsel Citation) and I hope you bear with me.

The status right now is that I have unloaded the Cub from the Travelall and partially reassembled it, and it now sits in the shed. The Kohler engine is removed and ready for disassembly.

I'm currently awaiting shipments from the US containing a full rebuild kit for the engine, new carburetor, new ignition lock cylinder, decals and a good used steering wheel.
And I just bought a new seat since mine was missing, and I have bought paint for it.
Also I need to buy a new clutch since that seems to be missing completely.

I have also ordered a sand blaster so I can blast the body, but found out yesterday that it is back ordered until November. So I probably need to find another one.

Here are some pictures from the unloading:
