You sir are an amazing artist! our country could use more men like you right now. I'm currently working on my grandfather's 1947 Cub. Inspirational.

Thank you!! It was a lot of fun

[@noroomforgloom]

Yep now that’s how you do it. I must say I’m very impressed. I just recently come into a 1959 cub sadly from a friend and neighbor that took his life and his daughter gave the little thing to me as a remembrance of our times spent using it in our gardens. The little machine still earns it’s keep. I feel I must now restore the little thing. Your fine restoration has inspired me. Thank you…

[@redminiongarage4402]

Thank you! It’s very rewarding when all the hours spent in the little details come together. They are a neat little machine

Aren't the cultivators supposed to be painted IH Blue?

Technically yes I do believe so
