Default My 122 work horse

This is my first and only cub, and while I don't intend on fully restoring her, I wanted to make sure she at least looked pretty! These pics show my progress over the past few days (and I know how you all like pics). Its certainly not perfect, but now I can parade around the yard in style. My cub had at least 2 previous coats of yellow and it was red all the way underneath.

Absolutely nothing to be ashamed of there. That turned out really great.
My 128 is the same way, it is not going to be a trailer queen, it's going to be used, but I didn't want to leave it rusted in spots, so I wanted to make it pretty again the best way I could. It's not perfect but I like it.

Thank you all for the compliments! Glad you approve. I have a lot of respect for the members of this site. You guys have helped me out quite a bit already without even knowing it!

I just took it for a ride around the block to generate some attention.

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.
