Default a little paint....

I brought the new 149 home earlier in the week, and although the paint has been spray bomb redone, to some degree it actually looks decent, and the PO used the correct colors..

except on the rear wheels...

Note the bling "chrome" wheels on the rear..



I dropped by the local farm supply house and picked up a few cans of "cub cadet yellow" and "cadet cadet beige"

I had the local tire shop pull the Ag's off and I proceeded to wire wheel the silver paint off, prime and repaint. it looks like it they had pretty decent paint so I have no idea where the idea for the silver came from... any ways here's the results. I'll get the Ag's remounted tomorrow morning and then its off to my buddy's shop to do some thing with this god awful exhaust stack....



even threw some yellow on the lugs... don't think that's the original color, but i figured it would look neat. I also touched up the portion of the hub that shows through the wheel center as they were covered in silver also....

Real nice 149! Hitch and every thing including ag tires ready to go! Even with the JD seat. Wheels look great!
Hate to say but I have a Craftsman seat on the 86 and its a very comfortable seat.
But I am looking for a good seat with arms for the 147. any ideas PM me.
Regards,
Chris

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.
