I am trying to amass all the parts I will need before starting my 149 restore. I really want to change the color to red and white as opposed to yellow and white, but need to find someone that will do custom decals. I emailed maple hunter and was informed they will not do custom decals. I was looking at their decals for the 149, I think the only change to them would need to be to the decals that go along each side of the hood. I don't think they would look very good on a red background, thought about just having the black and white on the standard decals reversed and replacing the blue stripe with a red one...should look very nice on a red background, would like the tractor was made to be that color.
So my question being, does anyone know where the decals could be made at? I am going to check into a couple of the local sign companies, some of them make custom vehicle wraps, so they should be able to print off what I like. I don't want to get them cut from different colors of vinyl, would prefer them to be printed out. Thanks for any info you might have to help me out. Jeff ![]() This maybe in the wrong section, maybe should have posted in customized section, admin feel free to move it where you think it needs to go, thanks! |

I got the decals made for my tractor, they could not make them exactly like the original ones, copyright or some issue, with the fonts used in the cub cadet lettering. Here is what I decided on, I like them and think will look goog on a red background.
022.jpg 024.jpg 023.jpg Let me know what you think, was trying to come up with something that would have looked as if the tractor was originally painted IH red and white as oposed to yellow and white. The original decals on the 149 measured 2 1/4" wide, I increase the width to 2 1/2" was considering going even wider than that, the side of the hood on the 1x8/9 series is very wide, but then again I was trying to keep them looking as if they could have been oem. |

Thanks for the compliments, I think they turned out great. Will be a while before they get used, just started tearing down the tractor today. Oh, by the way, if someone was interested in a set, I could give you the suppliers info. They charged me $25.00 for them, was glad to pay it to get what I wanted. I am sure they could modify them for any cub model, they saved in their computer and can change stuff around pretty easily!

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.
