Default Theft - Portland, IN show

I was doing some reading on another site and I guess a few items were stolen from the Portland show, the items include an antique generator, hit and miss engine and a Cub Cadet tractor, maybe more but that's all I heard. It's a real shame that your stuff isn't safe even around fellow collector's.

I heard something about that too, I agree, it's disgusting someone would do that.

Please forgive me if this a dumb question, but how does one walk off with a large piece of equipment or even a tractor at a show? Hit and miss engines aren't exactly something one could just shove down their pants and wander away with. That takes a team.

Good question. This is a several day show so I'm sure lots of stuff get left there over night and from what I've heard there's almost no security at night.

Only takes a few minutes with a trailer and a winch.

If they catch the thieves, I'm undecided between a pig farm or a hole with lime ....

I can see how it happens, just start loading stuff up when no one is around and act calm and cool like it is yours. Fortunately from what I have observed in fooling with old iron for 30 years, that crowd is still one of the more honest groups of folks out there. With any group there will be bad apples of varying degrees, but not that many in that crowd. Several times I have ordered parts and was told the bill will be in the box, please mail the check once you get the shipment.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
