First the Cub is completely disassembled.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
Then, all of the parts are stripped of their
paint and sandblasted.
|
||
After sandblasting, all of the parts are
quickly primed to avoid rusting. The front of the tractor is painted its
original cream color, and then buffed.
|
||
The rest of the tractor is painted its original cub yellow.
|
||
|
|
|
All of the components are added back to the cub including the radiator and all of the wiring. All of the liquids that were drained are re-added as well.
|
||
The tires are removed from there rims so they can be replaced with new. The front rims are painted, and the back rims will be powder-coated.
|
||
The wheels are then placed on the tractor and all of the wires and exhaust system is put in place. | ||
|
|
|
Nearing completion, the top cover of the tractor is added, giving it a more completed look. |
