New member, old cub
Posted: Mon May 31, 2004 5:48 pm
I recently traded a guy some work on his hardware store for a 1947 farmall cub. He had the motor rebuilt, and tore the rest of the tractor apart so as to paint it. As with many people, he just got burned out.
I've started the rust removal process, and after working 4 hours on one wheel, am starting to feel the same way. Overall, the unit is in excellent shape, however, it's going to take a lot of work to get it where I'll be happy with the outcome (I'm a perfectionist).
I'm new to the site, and after reading some posts, looks like it's an excellent source of information. I'm in need of a battery box (w/lid), tool box, and mesh grille. The grille I have is not in too bad of shape, but if I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it right. Anyone have any good places to get this stuff?
Thanks,
Jason M.
