I decided to keep it. I can't stand to see old iron perish. I ordered a radiator and am going to the flea market for a tire soon.

 

If that's all that was wrong with it, for being 66 years old, that's not too bad. We all started somewhere, and if someday it doesn't fill your needs, you have rolling stock to trade up.

 

I have a '51 8N as well to go with it. I'm hoping I can find some implements to fit the cub. As of now I have a finishing mower on it that has been rebuilt with what looks like galvanized plate.

 

You can put a search, and notify on Craigslist, and it will let you know when something is listed. I'd probably do a search for Farmall Cub. That should sort out Cub Cadets. You'll probably get more hits for the tractors, then implements, but, you never know. Watch ads for local auctions to, especially consignment auctions. I saw several Cub implements at one local consignment auction this year. Pretty well went for peanuts, because they only fit the Cub, or, it's a PIA to mount them.

Just be aware that with the up and rising organic vegetable farming, and market farming, people are now again looking for them. Too bad it wasn't a little newer, and had Fast Hitch. So much simpler. Attachments like cultivators are a half day job to mount. And, lots of fingers have been cut off attaching them. They will fold up in a heartbeat, so be careful..!!
