I love it! It looks a lot like my 148R is going to look. I'm going for the 1066 look. I really like the grill on yours. How did you do that?

The grill is made of 3/8"x 5/8" and 5/16"x1/2" steel. I machined notches in the pieces so that they interlocked like puzzle pieces and then I welded and ground all of the joints. It is mounted through the spring clip holes with studs made from #10 flat head cap screws welded to 3/16" plates.

Put the gas tank in and hooked up the carb. Put a little gas in the tank and checked for leaks. All is dry.
 Sanblasted the headlight clamp rings and got the lights mounted and wired. Had to steal the lights from my 100 since the ones that came with this tractor were different from each other and one didn't work. Also painted the trim around the headlight panel silver.   I'm going to get some "Hydro" decals made to go on the sides of the hood like they were on the 1066 hydro tractors. I've got a full size decal and I'm going to see if a sign shop can scan it and scale it down.

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.
