1950

[Stove]

Hi all, been creepin here a while. Just thought I'd say hi, and give a warm thanks to all who contribute here!

I picked up a really decent 1950 Cub recently, and love it. It takes me back to when I was a kid and my Dad and I had an "A".

This one's numbers put it in the Demonstrator period, but I see absolutely no signs of it ever wearing White.

Nicely equipped with belly Touch Control grader, PTO, and Wagner loader with hydro-dump manure bucket.

Funny, I replaced both front tires (sadly HAD to). They were undoubtedly originals, and I was the FIRST guy into one of them, judging by
no patches on the original Firestone tube! the other one was all original too, but it had one patch, pretty amazing what this country was capable of.


Cheers!

The quality and dependable are beyond words to describe and you will be the next caretaker for this tractor until the next generation takes the reigns. Enjoy the time now because it will go by so fast!
