Dang that turned out super nice! (opps another super pun!) Top to bottom it's sweet looking! Only thing that is missing is some decals to match that bad axe paint job! What you got in mind for decals?

Thanks folks.

Jbollis, The hydro lever is just extended with a 3/8" all thread connector and a piece of 3/8" all thread with a couple of lock nuts. I bent the all thread to get the knob up near the steering wheel so both can be worked with one hand if needed. The stock lever is not in a very comfortable position for me at all. The extended lever aslo makes it much easier to use the other hand for running the snow equipment if I need to.

Methos, No decals. I like the clean look. If it was an IH I might have put an IH emblem on the grill But I think I'll leave it as is.

I haven't posted a lot lately. But I still check in from Time to time. Every thing on the Rat Rod Super has been working well and No major projects so I guess not a lot to talk about. Anyway I posted the pics in this thread in August of 2010. I thought I would post some current pics to show how the old girl is holding up. i've been impressed with the rattle can paint job. a few scuffs here and there but over all I'd say it's in about the same shape a factory paint job would be in with the same rough service.



Some tree buffing from all my pines that constantly rub the tractor when mowing. I need to put a new C clip on that hydraulic fitting.


I guess I should learn to pick up my feet.


And since everybody likes working shots. Today towing my Trooper. I had to pull it up hill to the end of the drive. The engine gave up and this way I just let her roll down the drive and turn hard and she will coast into the garage where I can get to work on her.




The super has been used for car pulling duty like this numerous times.

Also I have to say that I have nothing but good things to say about the tire combo of the Tru-Powers and V61's. All filled with WWF of course. Last winter I didn't even put chains on to push snow on the hills.

The super is looking good, Squatch! I'm enjoying my 1872 also. I hope to possibly get a set of the V61's for Christmas.

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.
