Farmall Cub

I had a fellow I met last year stop by the house a month or so ago, he had to jog my memory of our meeting and conversation. He had been playing with cubs a while, just by word of mouth, and decided he wanted to switch to Green..

He asked if I was interested in all the cub stuff he had(silly question). I told him again I am always interested but usually broke. He kindly smiled and said I would not need a lot of that.

The long stripe is part of that package we agreed to. Most likely it will take me 4 or 5 trips(the way "I" load a trailer )

We shook on the deal, and i am working on the funding. It took me 2 notebook pages to list most the stuff. I will post pictures of the rest of the stuff when I get it home. It does include 2 parts cubs and a runner that just needs some parts swapped, along with 3 cub power units(2 are stuck). I will get all the S#s later.

what a find good luck

Nice Dale, Is that a Cub power unit in the pics?

3 of them Bill. 2 are stuck, 1 turns over. I am sure 1 good one and a bunch of great parts sitting there.

Wow, That was a good find!

Nice find Dale

Thats reason enough to move to Ten Up See....Nice stuff....Dave

Tried, he just laughed.

He is also needing the room in the shed, as he is wanting to set up a blacksmith shop.

Here are some more pictures of what is there. There is a cool looking push plow(home-made) and other cool stuff. I can't wait till it is mine and back here in the back pasture and barn.

There is a baked cub, a broke cub and a worker cub, and a bunch of implements.

I need some education, what is a long stripe cub ?

On the Cub power units, how were they used ?

I have a Cub power unit over at my families home place, I always assumed Grampa picked it up as a spare Cub engine.
I havn't messed with it to see if locked up or not, my guess is it would be locked up now.

Thanks !

Here is a picture of ScottyD's Dad Power Unit running a C IH Corn Grinder - taken at Cecil's Mini-Fest on 20-April. he advised he got this unit from a baler.
I don't know what a long stripe is either.

A long stripe Cub is from the last years of production and had a long strip on the hood.

Yes, they can also be used as replacement engines in the Cubs.
