Thanks, guys! Appreciate all the kind remarks. And I should add, Momma E. loves it. Now if Phil can just help me persuade her to get on it and take it for a stroll !!

I took quite a while to get her on the cub, but Phil was able to make it happen. Thanks, buddy!

Roy:

I am beginning to become interested in the larger Letter Series tractors. Gord had his H here for almost 2 years and last summer we got to get it up and running again. Hopefully it will be back this summer for a bit. They sure have a lot of power and have some real uses. Too big for me to ever own one I think, but I am beginning to like em... :) a LOT :) :D :!: Glad you were able to finally get your H ... enjoy it :{_}:

I promised some pictures of some goodies that I got along with the H. Here is one of the prizes, not just for the contents, but since they are original manuals, complete with leather binder.

Here are some pictures of the service manuals in the binder. Most of them are not cub related, but still cool. Rudi, if you would like/need any of these, let me know and I will make an effort to copy them for you. I'm sure Bob will give me some guidance if you need some of them.
