looked like crap, and ran the same, when I got it, looks good,and purrs, now (my show tractor)
What first sparked your interest in owning a Cub? Cut my teeth on one, then went, for years, without one. Scott fell in love with one, at school. I bought him one, for Christmas.We restored it, then I needed one. I got a breeding pair, and now I have a herd of them.
