Picked up a deck for my O
Took a ride to Welcome NC to and picked up a decent deck for my O thanks to the post in the c-List section by j4c11.
I bought the unrestored deck that he had listed. All I need is a good shell. http://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/s...ad.php?t=34946 After that the wife and I stopped at Richard Childress racing, it was about 2 streets up the road and checked that out, then we stopped at the Can Am dealer on the way home and looked at Can Am Spyders. Playing with the idea of buying one. If any of you get the chance to check out the Nascar shops it's worth the time. Incredible operations. Having 3 teams with 20 +- mil budgets each can pay for a lot of cool stuff. Being an ex racer I was like a druggie going through withdrawal.

I love how RCR is waaaay out in Welcome no where near the mecca of Nascar shops (Mooresville, etc). I visited it once a few years ago on a NC trip. It was crazy weird looking at all the iconic cars that big E drove that I've only seen in pictures/on tv. Crazy amount of history in those buildings. Of all the places I visited during my trip, (JR Motorsports, DEI, RCR) I think I enjoyed RCR the best.
PS Nice looking deck for the O.

Congrats on the deck Sam.
My wife and I love going to charlotte. We been to half a dozen race shops and mwr was by far the best. They have a cat walk that you can look down in all the rooms and see the guys building components and cars. You can even take a tour of the fab shop and see them laying out the cars in the jig. Doesn't have the history of rcr, but for a fabricator who would love to make a living building race cars, it's a cool tour. Bill

I have already rebuilt the spindles and the other moving parts on my deck but the shell has been patched and it is a crappy job. Plan is to sand blast and paint the rusty looking one and transfer the good parts to it. 1st 2 pics are the deck that came with my O, 3rd pic is the one I picked up yesterday.

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.
