Well, the call came in shortly after lunch. After jumping over approximately 4 or 5 teeth, the Cub has started. He said he only ran it for a minute because he had not put coolant and water back in since he took the head off. He said that, after he ate, he was going back out to fill up the cooling system and run it some more. I'm dying to get out of here (my office). Unfortunately, it will be after 7 o'clock before I can go over and hear it run. Man, this is exciting!!

I guess the next step will be to rebuild the carb. Then I need to pick up my belly mower and disk harrows that I bought with the tractor. The mower probably needs some refurbishing. Then, I suppose I need to have the "access panel" that was taken from the hood welded back into place (I have the original cutout). Then, maybe I could think about paint and decals. And I would like to put some lights on those posts that are on the side of the hood and under the seat. Of course, that's assuming that the clutch, brakes, pto, etc. are in good working order. Then again, that's asking a lot from a tractor that has sat for the better part of 15 years.
This is going to take a while, isn't it.
