Hello from Kentucky

Postby kroyalty » Thu Jul 23, 2015 9:03 pm

Just recently obtained my grandfathers 49 cub. I plan on restoring it. I have wanted it since it was sold at auction approx. 42 years ago when my grandfather retired from farming. I kept track of it all these years and finally heard that the gentleman who had it had parked it and was no longer using it. He agreed to sell it to me. I made the 235 mile trip a couple of weeks later and brought it home. It sat for 2-3 three years and won't start but I have a lot of hope for the little tractor. Looking forward to the journey. :D

Congratulations on finding it. Where did you have to go to get it?
There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Welcome to the forum from Arkansas. Great to get that cub back, that alone makes it worth restoring. There is a lot of information on the site and many folks who with help you with your questions. Look up a CubFest close to you and try to attend one or some of them. Best of luck.

Boy you did really good in keeping track of the family tractor, you deserve to own it :{_}: :{_}: learn all about starting up a cub that has been sitting a long time before diving in. The guys on this forum are brilliant at helping out :worthy: :worthy:
Enjoy,
Bernard,
Donegal Cub.
