Red has more sex appeal, but I would paint the fenders white for a stand out factor. I want to white the fenders on my 73 if ever I get time. Congratulations on your O....looks like a fun project!

I vote yellow.

I have never wanted an "O". Just didn't appeal to me. But I must say, they seem to be growing on me lately.......

I have a 129 that needs a paint job. I have considered painting it with the same color scheme that it currently has only replace the yellow with Farmall red. I just think it would look cool. I vote you paint it red, but it really doesn't matter. The yellow is great as well.

Yellow is my favorite color, but my 149 is going red and white like a 1066.

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.
