There are two ways to get enough Cubs. One is to continue to accumulate more and more. The other is to desire less.

Sure, it's doable but not as simple as it appears. It would be easier to start with a standard Cub than with a LoBoy. Final drive bolt patterns are not symmetrical, so you can't just flip them. Then there's all the little things like brakes and such. Do it and show us your best work!

Sounds like you're working on a cool project. Please post photos once you are to that point.

You may get some ideas from this thread, depending on what you're doing. This guy hasn't posted in over two years. I wonder if he ever finished this neat project made from a numbered LoBoy:

Wow! That’d sure have people scratching their heads at car shows!
Wayne Carini would be baffled by it especially if it got finished off all pretty and then given a little patina to it. :lol:
