In one of my earlier post I talked about wanting to save the original bolts that came off the tractor. I was really impressed that most were stamped with the IH logo. So after some research I built a zinc plating tank. It works really well. Through trial and error I got the process down. Its quite easy, just time consuming. The bolts have to be de-rusted, I did this soaking them in vinegar, then wire brushing them on a bench grinder. And before putting in the tank a good cleaning with a degreaser. A couple of pics to show it happened.
After vinegar soak. DSCN0550.jpg DSCN0549.jpg I didn't take a pic after wire brushing, I forgot  But here they after plating, I'm pleased. DSCN0693.jpg DSCN0692.jpg

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.
