For your eyes only ! Red Power, La Porte 2010

[Lee_Petrie]

I went to the La Porte show yesterday (Friday), here are some of the unusual things that caught my eye ! Just thought others might be interested ! SPECIAL NOTE: the duel wheeled Cub had NO spacers and the pedal Cub tractor, had pedals on only on one side of the "crank" ! Lee

There's a few there I didn't get to see. They must not have been there yet. Hope you enjoyed your time there, I did. I wanted to go back on Friday in the worst way again but I couldn't, just too much going on here. I would have had several pics if I had remembered my digital Camera. Instead I had to buy a lowsey 8 dollar disposable and have them put on a CD. O Well. Did you find the parts you were looking for??? If any??

Lee:

Nice pics of the different Cubs. Can we have more please

I like the Fire Engine Cub and of course the ganged reel mower Cub.. more of those would be great too

I also asked about a pedal Cub and had to wish I didn't. They are just as much as a Cub. Ho;;y smokes I said, (not really though).

I would love to get one.

Jason,

The peddle Cub caught my eye to, I got a few pictures if it before I realized the one in front of it was a white Demo Cub There was also one on the big peddle tractor display. I am not sure how well it would actually work with the one peddle, but the detail, stickers and the fact it was offset was neat!

SOOOO much to see there, I also had a blast!

The Pedal Cub moved with a Ratcheting movemment. I asked the man selling one. He showed me, it was pretty genious really. Now I wish Ertel would come out with one..

I missed the SA rims on the front... but even so.. the Fire Department Super A is pretty cool

Rudi,
How many tractor/engine shows do you attend ,each year, up your way ? We, the wife and myself , usually make it to 3 or 4 shows per year , this year is special, that was our first time attending a "Red Power" event ! When we attend the Steam Engine Shows here in Illinois, our '57 (Miss Red) is assigned the "corn cracking" task,and we put the chicken feed into small plastic bags ,giving it to the kids and mom's for bird feed !

The firetruck is an A isnt it/

Also what is up with the shortened cub with NO BRAKES.

[Gary Dotson]

John, the short Cub with no brakes is a Cub Cadet made over to resemble a Cub. The one next to it was a high crop Cub wannabe.

The firetruck is an A isnt it...

From the looks of the decal on it I would guess it's a Super "A".
