Rosie and I made a grueling 12 hour round trip to Michigan to pick up our new addition. I say grueling because it should have been ten hours, but since I had been sick since Monday morning we found it safe to stop at EVERY rest stop along the way, but enough about that.
This is a nice one to look at, but it will require more work than the seller and I expected. David is a great guy and I am glad to have had the chance to meet him. The only bad thing is, he seems to believe a lot of what you guys say about me. He was treating me more like royalty. It took me awhile to get him to believe I put my pants on like anybody else, one leg at a time (however, getting those legs in takes four times longer now days. We found a few issues that David never realized were issues at first, but we were able to overcome that. By the way, When I mentioned the hood decal should have said "McCormick-Deering" he pointed to his wife and said her maiden name was McCormick and she didn't want to share top billing. Smart man.
I'll post a few photos of it tonight and tomorrow I will show some of the issues when I get the pix. Like I said David was great to work with, I just wish he would have sold me the other Cub as well since I had enough room to haul four of them. Anyway, I need to make room in BOB since this is to nice looking to site outside.

There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Re: New Member of The Herd
Your tractor magnet on your trailer must not be working, or you would have filled up the trailer by the time you got home. At least it worked enough to attract one tractor.
BTW, congrats on the "new" tractor. It does look pretty nice.

Re: New Member of The Herd
Looks like it's in nice shape . I usually buy them with one foot in the grave . I have a lot of trouble walking away from any of them in any shape. What number is this one ?

Re: New Member of The Herd
Great lookin Cub.
Hey, you have friends in Michigan that could have picked up and brought the Cub to a new home (in Mi. ) and saved you all that driving....

Re: New Member of The Herd
Here are more pix of the Michigan Cub that was listed last Sunday for $500.00 that I brought home. Overall, I consider this a good one. Not sure I would drive so far again without asking more questions first, but still it is good.
