Hi guys,
Just picked up this 48 cub, runs great! the rear tires are mismatched but I can swap them with my 54. My 54 is dead by the way, I was having starting issues actually it would not even turn over. I worked through that and finally was able to get a good compression check. The highest I found was 50lbs,
one cylinder was at 25 so I got this 48 to replace it for less than an engine rebuild will cost. Not sure what I will do with the 54 yet.

Re: New to me '48
Nice score. Was this on the local Craig's List? I haven't browse the St. Louis CL ads recently, as I'm pretty well set...for now.
I hope to see you in Fredricktown the end of the month for Cub-Arama.
