Default Pics of the Original Update
Here is what I have done so far. The yellow is just primer, I am priming all yellow pieces with yellow primer and the IH white pieces in a gray primer. I have two coats of yellow primer on top of one coat of gray primer.

I really am interested in the paint rack! Engine stand? Portable? I think I like it!

the primer is Ace "zinc yellow primer" over rustoleum gray, i have not decided on the paint yet. probably Cub Cadet brand , i did a 106 a couple years ago with the same process and it turn out awsome , and still looks like it was painted yesturday.
all pieces were blasted to bare metal. i use the gray primer first to for rust protection and to help the yellow primer coat better, just two coast of yellow covered good, i will wet sand the primer before paint. i no pro painter but i think it will work out awsome again.

Could not agree more on the Cub Cadet paint. I painted a 72, 17 years ago, and could not believe how nice the paint { for those of us who know } still shined! I use only Cub Cadet paint as my personal choice! Painting is all in the prep work, anyone can paint,.............. its like cooking chicken!

Nice attention to detail, and work so far! Thanks

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.
