Default Cub Catable

Alright here's a little backstory on this contraption....
So a few years back I had envisioned a mobile bar/ picnic table thing to cruise around at tractor pulls/shows, fairs etc. Well this summer I had picked up a couple 682's from my uncle, one ran (with an onan transplant) and one has a blown up kohler. With the influence of some liquid courage, me and some buddies devised a plan and dubbed it the cub catable. I had made a box frame to mount a table that was originally a bar in my college house and before that was a loft for my bed in my dorm room. (told you there was quite a backstory). The frame was then welded to the front of the 682, and the front axle was attached to the front of the frame. The steering rod was lengthened, and a 1/2 in cable with a turnbuckle was placed from the front to the back to prevent sagging. The finishing touches still need to be done, as in paint and put the side shields and hood back on, also the grill and headlights will be placed on the front on the tractor to provide a somewhat "stock" look. Also dual wheels may be added for stability, but a trial run at a tractor pull proved successful. As seen in the last pic, dad seemed to enjoy it lol.
