Drove to south AL yesterday to buy a
cub. Seller said her late husband took
it to a friend for paint. It got painted
but never put together, paint guy passed
away. Two years later tractor is brought
home and put together, then owner passed
away. ( Both guys in late '80s) so it
sits another year. Widow finally sells
it to me. Tag is covered in paint, but
under the hood paint I can see an
outline of a decal running almost to the
back of gas tank. Casting codes show
'75. Got a little paint stripper on the
tag this morning, hope to read the
serial number soon. But curious, what is
different about a long stripe cub?
