Just need to say some things

This is a great site, and I don't get to come here too often anymore but when I do I try to learn alittle and help alittle. Please relax and roll with the flow.

I have grown up sitting on two diiferent cub and a Super A. I feel I have a good idea on their limitations. I just don't want to see someone with an attachment that is too heavy and will destroy a great Cub or even worse hurt a person. IT is not worth the challenge.....

Take Care.

I'm the guy with the tricycle Cub. It is, of course, not offered as an example to follow, but also not intended to be a money pit. The time required will keep me off golf courses and out of bars. Many will think it is a completely nutty idea and they may be right. The following is a letter I sent to another group early in the project soliciting opinions. I have received a LOT of good feedback. Maybe it would be instructive for Bill C.

I have been jabbering about a lot of off topic stuff lately, but this really
is tractor related. I have taken the first few faltering steps on the
project I expect to take to Portland next year. This will be a !@#$% Cub,
modified to resemble a miniature Farmall B. It will be built from spare
parts. I expect to add a second platform and seat on the left side, so it
can be a proper 2 place butt buggy. So many have documented their projects
that I thought I would too. I find all of them interesting.

I have sent the engine out to have the hard valve seats installed, so while
I'm waiting for it I have been working on the front end. The front end is
far enough along that I'm convinced it will work. I have started an album
on Photopoint at;

If anyone cares to look, I'd appreciate feedback. To make it easier, I have
provided a ballot to punch.

...1. Have you completely lost your mind?

...2. You have too much free time on your hands.

...3. It will look better if you paint it green and yellow.

...4. Why?

...5. I H C should have done this in the first place.

...6 What will this goofy thing be good for?

...7 What a waste of good tractor parts.

...8 Now we're getting someplace!

...9 Attaboy!

...10 None of the above.

If I follow through on my intentions, I expect to add regular updates,
depending on feedback.

If I had the time and could hide enough money from my wife, the sky would be the limits as to what I would try and I'm sure some of ideas are really nutty. But if it is fun to me and I can afford it, then all the better.

Ya'll have fun and be safe...And Bill C...I hope you post ALL of your questions..as always there will be guys lined up to answer them...BB

I have a Cub and a Super H, so I know a little about both of them. The Cub is a great tractor and I love mine. But it has its limits as several others have pointed out. One of the questions you asked essentially amounted to "should I make $1500 worth of modifications to a $1500 tractor to end up with something a $2000 tractor can do?" I think everyone WAS trying to look out for you.

I'm sorry we hurt your feelings...but believe me that was never my intention...BB
