Mini F cub made out of a Cadet

[Redcub]

Found really nice pic of a Mini F-Cub made out of a Cub Cadet. Does anybody have any info on this project. I love it!
How was the hood made? Was the right side axle extended and the left side chopped? I'm very impressed with it.
Do you think the steering gear is from a Cadet or something else? I like the "lawn-vision"

I believe that tractor was built by Ray Brown from Eldridge, IA . I am not sure if he still owns it or if it has been sold. If memory serves me right, the steering box is from a Cub Cadet, and is turned on it's side. I believe he made the front axle and yes the right side is longer than the left. The frame is from a Cub Cadet and the axle pivots on the stock Cub Cadet axle pivot point. Ray also built a mini Farmall B.

I built this one from a Cub Cadet 70, but it is now owned by Kenny & Julie Wilson, from western Kentucky. The steering box on it is also a Cub Cadet unit that is slightly modified. The axle pivot is under the steering box and is centered on the axle.

Perfect! Thanks for your reply and the pics. This will help is I ever get to the point of making one. Looks like a fun project.

Ray Brown is an awesome fella. I recently purchased a Mini B from him.... I luv it... I had it in it's 1st parade a couple weeks ago, I had a blast. I attached a picture. He does really great work.
