In Reply to: Super C cab posted by Joshua MN on February 18, 2011 at 10:13:31:
All I have ever seen are plywood and plexiglass boxes; shoddy, makeshift, half-arsed attempts at a cab on a Super C. They look like rejects from a Depression-era shanty town.
There weren't many manufactured cabs available for letter-series tractors, and then only for the larger H and M tractors. Nowadays, these are rarely seen, and even more rarely found up for sale.
You've got two ways to go with this:
1. Find a cab in a scrapyard and retrofit it to the tractor.
2. Build your own cab.
Try to locate a small, self-contained tractor cab if you want to retrofit.
To mount it, I would simply hang the cab over the operator's platform in its final desired location. Then, work out how to brace it to the tractor's axles and implement mounting pads so it will stay there.
If you decide to build your own, have some pride in your work. 2x4s, OSB, clear vapor barrier, and a staple gun do not make a cab. Make it look like a fine piece of furniture if you make it from wood, like an old "Woodie" automobile.
