About two years ago while at a car/tractor show cruise a gentelmen told me about a 54 cub that had been stored for 30 years.
"Sure it was".
Well i gave him a card and told him to call me if he wanted to sell it,one week later he called.
The story went his neighbor had bought it new with a plow,disc,moldboard,front plow, and a sickle mower. Well it was sitting in a barn with the sickle mower on it.
The orignal seat is perfect the orignal tires are on it and there not cracked ,tool box,battery box etc etc perfect "WOW". The paint is great on the tractor and sickle bar mower.
It would run but not well and both bull gears were leaking. The gas tank in side looked like it was brand new and all the normal wear points were tight and not worn.
So i asked how much! He says he "knows" he can get between $5000.00 and $6000.00 on ebay for it....... Ok. So i told him to call if it doesn"t sell.
Well about three weeks later he called and $3000.00 took everything. The bull gears needed all new seals and gaskets and i put new brakes in anyway seeing as how i was there.
The motor had stuck valves so alot of attention was paid to the motor.
It runs like a champ and the trans is dead silent unlike so many cub trans.
So yes low hr tractors are out there. Now i want a old HEMI car someone forgot about.
This tractor is sitting in the garage as i type this unrestored and proud to have it.

Up till then, this tractor had been running a corn grinder and pulling a trailer. It had new unfilled rear tires and no wheel weights. The garden was already sprouting when we hooked up the mid-mount shovel cultivators to the Pony. The seed bed was soft enough that the rear end would spin and slowly work its way to the downhill side of the gardens slight incline. From this, we learned our lesson sinc
