Hello from Missouri

Ok, so here goes. I’ve been a member of OCC for about a year. I’ve never posted anything but this site has helped me immensely. So today is the day I’m actually going to try to tackle posting a message and maybe even a picture.....
A little about myself, I bought my Cub Cadet 125 from my brother-in-law last year with a locked up motor. Partially because I’ve always wanted one, and partially for the challenge of rebuilding a Kohler 12 horse motor. I’ve rebuilt small motors in the past , mainly dirt bikes. So I thought, how hard can it be..... definitely more of a challenge than what I thought. It turns out they are nothing like a vintage 2 stroke. Somewhere along the line, I caught the “ cub bug”. After the rebuild I thought, well I might as well paint it. The project quickly spun out of control. Of all the things I’ve “ restored”, “ rebuilt”, or “repaired “, this has definitely been the most fun. I’m going to try to post some pictures, let me know what you guys think.... |

Thanks, I thought when I was done with the paint and rebuild that would be it....but I can see now it’s never ending. I had some paint left over, so why not paint the deck, why not find a trailer. It’s an addiction I tell ya.

I’m a little north of you about 50 miles south of St. Louis

I'm a narrow frame guy, but I like the look of a wide frame. If that makes any sense. I swapped out the front end with one off a 1811. Not sure what the " correct police" are going to say about it. But I like it. |
