Love the loader I want one so bad! AC your killing me with the T shirt pics. We had high winds blowing snow drifts again today. Caused a major road on my way to work to be closed which would have made for a 45 minute detour at least so I turned around and called in a vacation day.
Spent some time sorting out the cab on my 1872. The front shaping metal straps came in this week. I forgot to pick them up when I bought the cab! The cab is for the 82 series so I've had to do a little modding to get everything working just so. Reshaped the straps that hold the canvas up front so that all my pedals clear and I can get the canvas tight to the hood and cowl. Still need to put a couple of more grommets in the vinyl/canvas to pull it tight. Shimmed the chute adjuster so I can turn it between the cab frame and the tractor. Cleaned up the electric wiper and tried it out. The PO did a nice job fabbing it up it works well and travels just the right amount on the windshield. I think I'm going to add an amber beacon on the roof. It seems the PO had one on it. Still need to make a nice clean wiring harness for the cab with fuses and switches. I think I'll put a trailer connector in the seat pan of the tractor so I can just plug the cab in when I put it on for winter. I can't get over how good of shape the vinyl and windows are in. The vinyl windows are nearly perfect and unscratched after almost 30 years! I cleaned them real well today. In this pic you can see that the right side door is a little off. I think it got bumped with the tractor moving and tweaked it a little. I'm going to try to correct that as best I can.  before I added the shaping straps. They go forward from the windshield and then down to the footboards.

Since we had our snow and I finally got the blade hooked up and operating I was jonesing to do some more work with it. The grass on the side of our parking area had built up to about 3 inches higher than the concrete so I leveled it off with the old 149. Now the rain water can run off as it should. I am amazed at what this old cub can do. It wasn't easy cutting through the sod but with time and finesse I got it. I just got the chains on after our big snow but man do they help. Fun, lots of fun today!

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.
