No truck & trailer, I priced that out and would be a good bit more $$ than just getting a 24' box truck. Penske quoted me $650, which is almost $200 cheaper than Uhaul. Ya, kinda have a thing for the round fendered cubs:biggrin2: The 73 is the new proud recipient of the RD1000, was going on the 71, but the 73 is even more rare. Thanks:beerchug:

Awesome find for you. Does Duke get "pick of the litter" for his efforts??!! :biggrin2:

I plan on running over to NC in the Spring. I will help Duke sort through all of the Cubs and parts and make sure to cull out anything that I don't think that YOU will need! It's all for the greater good... I just would not want you to overload your trailer... Trust me...

Who said I was sharing or umm I mean needing help sorting thru all the parts!:biggrin2:

Don't forget about the dual wheels and the weight box on that 73 plus the RD-1000! Picture this 73 with a fully restored RD-1000 loader on it.:drool2:

I'll try and get the serial numbers for Jude and you. Jude's wanting to see the serial numbers on the O's as well.

I'm still wanting to have a NC cub run still. The first run will be without Jude tho, and we can't go vist those cubs but I've got some more honey holes hidden. Still working on trying to find a 82 honey hole but a couple of phone calls maybe I can round something up.:biggrin2:

My toe nails are still hard from seeing your 149 with that sweet cab!

Jude , Looks like a awesome collection of cubs and parts . Looks like you are going to need a few more cases of Cat Yellow from Restockit !
Good luck , with all your new cubs.

LOL, Thanks Jim!! Hopefully will be getting a compressor and paint gun so I can give them a "correct" restore.

Thanks Kevin, what a groupo!! Couldn't be more perfect for my tastes too:beerchug:

Thanks guys!! The 73 is a favorite of mine too:beerchug: Couldn't have hoped for a better 73 than the one I just got:biggrin2:. Will have to figure out some storage?? I do have a storage place about 200 yards up the road from me, may have to rent a storage unit to keep them out of the elements. We get a good bit of rain here in the summer.

You're going to need the space they way he's talking just for the tractors. I had to break the news to Jude that he forgot about everything that he has at his moms house that comes with this deal! I'll let Jude spill the beans on the info I gave him. I'm think 3-4 truck loads of parts only maybe more. I'll get a handle on the size of it the next time go over to his place in a couple of weeks to get my secret replacement loader.:biggrin2: Once the loader is loaded I'll start filling up the bed of my truck and start processing Jude's parts. I've called friends of mine and got room in their 4 car garage to store Jude's parts. The best thing is they don't collect cubs.:biggrin2:
