'48 is about the peak year of production in numbers term so there's a bunch out there. Don't get enthralled with paint and decals, it's not a rare Cub by any means. That being said, you may luck out by making sure the tank is clean, pouring in a bit of fresh gas and firing it up (after priming the oil pump first !!) I'd take a crank and see if it's free for starters. I'd also test the radiator and see if the anti freeze afforded enough protection in your area to prevent cracking the block.

Maybe try to find a "Cub guy" in your area who could help you assess condition/value. Good luck - keep us informed. Craig
