Default Bolivier's 1650 refresh thread

I see all of you guys threads on here and I've really been wanting to revamp one of my tractors. This isn't going to be a resto, just a refresher if you will. There will be some painting, but mostly I want a good working tractor that doesn't look to bad either.

Here is what I'm starting with. Some of you may have seen this in my "Yellow fever has struck again" thread.



No muffler. I'm not too concerned about the tins around the muffler, but I will most definitely be getting a new muffler.



None of the lights work. One headlight is dangling by the wire. Terminal is broken on that light. All lights will be functional when finished.



Gas tank is just sitting there. It looks like somebody was working on it, and never finished putting it back together......or they just used it as is.



Just a shot of the front of it. My other 1650 has a circle cut out in the mesh grill for the exhaust to exit. This one does not. I thought all quietlines exhaust exited through the hole in the grill??



Steering is loose. Dash tin is completely faded out. Wires sticking out of the fuse holder.



A little body work needed. There is also a small hole in the hood. Looks like maybe for a switch at one time. Have to weld that up too.



I'm not sure how involved it am going to get with this project. I'm just going to tear into and go from there. I want to fix all mechanical issues first. I just ordered some side panels off ebay that look WAY better than the tractor. So I will for sure be painting the hood, dash, and nose to look as good as the side panels. Then I'm going to HAVE TO order some new decals. Probably end up painting the frame and fender pan. We'll see.

Here are the new panels.



Talk at ya later.
Brent

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.
