Finished the diesel except for paint today. Cut down side panels from a 1864 I parted, then cut and folded the hood to fit them and trimmed the back of the hood. Drilled holes for a 122 hood ornament, primed it and bolted it together.
I'm going to chop up 2 ratty 42" blades to make a 54" and stretch the subframe to fit this if the weather would cooperate.

That is great looking. Nice fab work.
Leave it up to Cub guys to figure out how to work around broken plastic.

The real World keeps interfering with my plans. This week is going to be warmer, but I bought a whole heard of projects from a golf course auction last week (toros, cushman and jacobsen..not a cub in the bunch) and eveluating them has priority, plus I need to do some blade work NOW and will have to use my other 42" to move some dirt. The yard is overflowing so it might be a week or 2 before I get back on this. The oil pressure sender did take off pouring out oil and I got a generic one from NAPA that worked fine. It's always something.

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.
