Talking 1863 Tunnel Cover Decal, or High Resolution Pic

Good evening all,

I'm very new to CC and to this group, and I have a question I hope someone can answer.

I have a 1863 with around 325 hours that I've been working on, primarily knocking off decades of grease, sanding and painting, as well as adding a cat-0 3 point hitch on. I'm not going full bown restoration, at least not yet, but one missing decal is driving me crazy.

Does anyone know how I can get my grubby little sausage fingers on a tunnel cover decal? Spoke with PartsTree and these are truly NLA, and searches have proven fruitless. Brian at PartsTree suggested finding a high resolution pic of the label and have it recreated. So here it is...would anyone have a decal, or are able to take a high resolution pic of one for me? I'm not averse to begging, but it sure feels humiliating so I'm hoping I don't have to.

Thanks a bunch!

Brucifer

I would contact the sponsors at the top of the page first and if they can't help I'd try calling this company. I don't see the one you're looking for but maybe they can help.

I have the plastic cover. A steel one would be great if it were cheap and has the label.

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.
