Awesome. Love the letter series. I grew up on Dad's H and that and the M is my favorite tractors. This one looks like an H based on the size of the motor.

Tim,
I agree with Lew. You do great work! If I were closer, I have 3 or 4 Farmalls that would keep you busy.

No it won't and here's why. They guy had the sheet metal painted 4yrs ago by a so called professional and it looks horrible compared to how the chassis now looks, it has dry spots and runs in it but this guy thinks it looks great. I'm not sure what kind of professional would let something go looking that bad, maybe it was the guy you had paint your parts.

I came in this morning and was pleasantly surprised, I figured the paint would still be soft but it's good and dry and still has all the shine it had yesterday. Here's a pic taken of the air cleaner and as you can see I'm touching it.

That is too bad! Your customer, I am sure will be delighted with your paint work.
Yeah...As for the joker that started to paint the "72" project....We parted ways and I reblasted the parts.

Tim, are you going to shoot any kind of clear coat on this one? I would suspect not, but may the owner wants it, former paint job notwithstanding.

No clear on this one, this is a budget job and having to repaint the chassis is already pushing it. This came to us mostly painted with the exception of a few small parts and we were to paint those parts and then assemble it but they painted the chassis with spray paint and when I tried to wash the 4yrs of dust off it the paint started coming off.

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.
