Having found a diesel Cub and then finding this forum, I jumped in the deep end and started a total restoration. I've done several farm tractors and a couple of antique tractor trailer rigs, but this is my first Cub. I plan on doing the gear reduction starter and the glow plug relay updates as well as a steering column rebuild. Everything else will get cleaned inspected and painted with repairs as needed. I've seen some mighty purty tractors on here, I hope I can keep up my end! Here's where I'm at so far ----

Well- a little progress has been made. The fuel tank and radiator have been cleaned and all the black color parts have been bead blasted and repainted. One color down and three to go, Kubota blue, and IH red and white. My wife has been "impressed" that either UPS or FedEx has been to the house every day last week delivering restoration parts. The fun continues!

Next up will be to pull the rear axle from the frame and perform the clean, service and repaint sequence. Yes it's black, and the gun has been cleaned and put away too. Am I the only one that always forgets at least one part that needed to be painted a certain color when you thought you were done?

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
