I didn't have much time to spend on it tonight, but I did get the bottom mount picked up. I bolted it on to see how it is going to sit. I still need to cut the square out of the middle so the seat base fits. I have not decided whether to cut it completely out or to cut it so I can bend it down and bolt it to the 2 battery box bolts on the lower part of the fender like the factory ones do.
In the rear view picture the sides look the they are splayed out, but there not, they do go straight up. I have to mount it a little farther back on the fender then the factory one so I can get the room to allow the seat to be all the way back. The front down supports will still line up with the 2 bolts on the front of the floor boards. I will be changing the fenders out for a straight set on final assembly, I figured I might as well leave the bent ones on for test fitting/drilling. Oh, and I remembered what the acid wash leaves on the steel, It is a zinc coating.

I got some of the POR part of the painting done today. I still need to do the inside of the rear section and roof. I took a couple pictures to show you how nice the POR lays even when brushed on. Those are the rain clouds reflecting off the finish. It is a shame that it has to be sanded to get anything else to stick to it. These pieces will need to dry for a day or two before I can lay them on the painted surface with out leaving marks. Maybe Tuesday if the weather is good I can finish them up.
The POR goes along ways, I will use less then a pint to paint all these pieces. You really don't want to buy more of this than you need. It is a real pain to keep, and you wind up wasting more than it is worth. I pour out from the can into a beer cup (plastic solo cups) some paint then paint from that. I pour the rest of the can into a small, clean, good wide mouth juice bottle with a screw on plastic lid. This stuff will weld the lid of the metal can to the can if you try to store in the can. Trust me you will not get the lid off, and you will waste whatever is left in there trying to get it out.

I will check them out for a wiper unit, Thanks.
I got some more done tonight. I need to be studying for my A+ test right now but ,well, you know. I did some cutting and bending so the bottom mount fits and the seat can be put down. Everything clears. It wasn't to bad except for my saw not wanting to cut straight. I will clean it up and round the corners with the grinder, maybe tomorrow.

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.
