The "O" does look really good Sam! Are the tires all original?

Great job Sam. My O is blasted and getting ready for paint so you got me motivated to keep going. Those tires do look all original, front and back, sweet.

Can't say for sure but I think the tires are original and they are in very good condition considering they are 52 years old, almost no cracks.

A little touch up with a brush for some of the scratch's is about it as far as the tractor is concerned. The deck is a different matter. For now the O is back in it's parking spot. Shop needs a serious cleaning, the lawn needs mowing, house needs some TLC, you know the drill.

First 3 pics are before painting.
Two questions for you Sam,

1. Did you try that battery you linked a few pages back?
2. Did you just use the primer and then color or did you clear over the color too?

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.
