    The next project, early National reel mower

    I mentioned having acquired another project, and here is my thread to document it. Unfortunately not a Cub Cadet, I haven't seen many around here lately. But this is an early example of a National reel mower. This was actually given to me as a Christmas gift. Unfortunately I was told that the...

    Saving a Farmall M

    This old Farmall has quite a story behind it. It currently resides in a crumbling abandoned barn on an old farm. I am making it my goal to save it, as it's a cool tractor with a cool story. This tractor was apparently purchased from the world's fair and it originally wore a white paint job. It...

    The story and transformation of "Pinkie" the 1963 70

    A couple months ago I added Cub Cadet #5 to the collection. A 1963 70, that I have dubbed "pinkie" because of the paint job it had when i bought it. The man selling it was very kind, he told me that the tractor was originally planned to be used as a pulling tractor for someone and their...

    Working on the little engines

    Thought I would start a thread for myself to keep track of my "smaller" projects. With the county fair under 3 months away I need to have an engine fleet ready for display! So we'll start back early on in the month. I pulled out 2 of the engines that were displayed last year and got them going...

    Another Farmall H joins the fleet

    My father purchased this local H for cheap in an auction. With a running H and M already on the farm we don't really have a use for it but for $500 we can't lose either way. The future of this tractor depends on whether or not it can be brought back to life. If it can, its an incredibly cheap...

    K161 governor mess

    In October 2020 I brought home a '61 Original with a rusty deck and big wide ag tires for $500. I have realized that this machine was a lot more of a project than what the seller claimed. They were a father and son with quite a lot of Cubs and Cub parts laying around, seemed trustworthy enough...

    I need help

    I did it again, I bought another engine. No, I didn't NEED it, but I've been looking for one for ages and this was probably my only chance for a while! And it already runs! This is a 1932 Maytag model 92. Gonna be fun to mess around with. Now I need to find a twin cylinder one to go with it...

    I just can't help myself!

    I didn't expect to be buying another machine, especially not during the County Fair, but here we are anyways! I picked up this nice little 1960s National Triplex reel mower a couple days ago from one of the other antique association members. What a machine these are! Everything is belt driven...

    Taking the 107 to the County Fair

    Today was the day, the 107 made the trip to the local County Fairgrounds. 2021 Wyoming County Fair, in Pike, NY, from Saturday August 14th to Saturday August 21st. With it came 4 vintage small engines, including the Kohler k90 I posted about a little while ago. The 106 helped out bringing the...

    Kohler K90

    Picked this little thing up yesterday for $50 at a Flea Market. She's an early one! I believe the K90 was the smallest engine in the K series. Don't see very many of them around either. After cleaning the points and cleaning the fuel system, it runs surprisingly well. Don't know what I'm gonna...

    1950 Farmall Cub

    This little tractor will be coming home soon. Should be a great addition to My IH stuff. It's currently residing at my grandparents house until we can trailer it home. My grandfather is giving it to me for free. It sat for about 4 years in his barn, all it took to make run was a fuel system...

    What a Transformation!

    Did some digging through old photos. Managed to find my photos of the 107 the day I brought it home: That night, after lots of cleaning the front headlight panel,,, Then some other random photos: And here she is now!!

    What are these mounting holes for???

    My 107 has 4 mounting holes for an unknown purpose... in the back of the seat pan!!! Anybody have any idea what these are for? I would say that they are just PO mod holes but that wouldn't make sense because they are threaded! The seat is the original metal pan and cushion and is the original...

    All of my Cub's stories + more pics!

    I don't mean to flood in with tons of postings but since I'm new and since you guys like pictures so much, here's the backstories to all 4 of my Cubs (and pictures!). I'll start with the 107, my first one with probably the most interesting story. So we start 30-35 years ago, before I was even...
