"I had restored a small tractor the year before my brother found my Farmall Cub at a local flee market. I purchased it sight unseen, but heard it run on my cellphone, and received a couple photos. My brother who is in medicine; thought it ran and looked good. I was a marine engineer, figured I could make any problem right, so I pulled the trigger. Turns out it is one of the best purchases I ever made! The head was rebuilt, and she runs extremely smoothly. Starts every time, and operates with little effort even for the amateur tractor operator. I have worked on old equipment for years, and in my opinion this has to be one of the finest tractors ever produced, just upkeep this workhorse and she'll keep on tick-in! "

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Reliability, low maintenance. Cons: Attachments & parts you must hunt for a good deal on. Type of User: Homeowner 1-10 Acres Location: USA MD I also considered buying:

Model year: 1952 Date Purchased: 1982-07-03 Number of Hours: ?

"Bought Cub from wife's great-uncle's widow. He bought in 1952, used on his farm and took excellent care of it. Has complete set of implements but I also bought 48" belly mower and set of cultivators. Only use for mowing now. Used for gardening for 5 yrs. Rebuilt engine about 2 years after I got it (about 1980). All parts were still factory spec. New rings and gaskets, re-seated valves. Occasional work on carb. but easy to fix. Replaced radiator core because my Dad tried to clean it with his pocket knife. Tires and tubes have been replaced recently too. Some new paint and she's still a working tractor. Recently bought a 1965 International Cub to restore and it really needs it."

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Parts are readily available. Easy to work on. Cons: Hydraulic unit is hard to rebuild. Type of User: Homeowner 1-10 Acres Location: USA TX I also considered buying: Ford 9N, John Deere 3030

"My father & grandfather bought the Cub w/implements, tandem disc, plow, cultivators, and sickle mower in 1950 and has been performing well since with little repairs (valves ground). If you perform regular maintenance, these tractors can last a long time."

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Right size for 10 acres or less. Cons: Six volt battery. Type of User: Homeowner 1-10 Acres Location: USA OH I also considered buying:

Model year: 1948 Date Purchased: 2012-06-25 Number of Hours: 0

"Purchased tractor with mower. Tractor mechanicals were generally good (engine was good with exception of several carburetor related issues - no smoke; some issues with transmission shifting. Several minor mechanical issues with mower. Tractor and mower refurbished by "Farmer John's Tractors" in Cartersville, GA. Tractor now runs and looks like new. This is a great little tractor for mowing relatively large "lawns". "

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Pros: Comfortable, mowing large and heavy growth is no strain. Does a good job and a lot more interesting than a "lawn" tractor. Cons: Certain parts are somewhat hard to find and can be expensive, although there is a pretty good offering of "aftermarket" parts available for this tractor.
