Hello All,

I've just got back from my travels all the way into Hampshire and back for this lovely tractor. Now woah up a little no one get all jumpy here, this has not replaced my love and obsession with wheel horses I'm still looking to grow my horses collection as in the spring I'm hoping to build a bigger stable/workshop. It's all about the wheel horse of course, this is just a little fun project and tractor to restore in spare time and after all it's a good show piece with this cub cadet, my little mowett mustang, and raider 10, :D

Here's what you lot like PICTURES. Also can anyone tell me are those wheel weights on the back wheels, if so will they fit my raider 10?

Wow nice find! How long of a drive was it for you? My first love of tractors started many years ago with a Cub Cadet and IH.  That's interesting wheel weights mounted on the inside!....or are the rims mounted in reverse??? Anyway ready for snow? Not certain if those weights will fit your Raider... those weights have a 4-lug pattern.

Those weights should bolt right up on your Raider on the inside as well.

Hey guys!

All is going well, clutch plate/pressure plate is getting replaced today as the old one just flew out and snapped into 5 pieces, so don't quite know what's going on there, touched up a few places with the paint brush, and wheel weights are off, and cleaned waiting to go on the horse when the snow arrives,

A nice find Charlie, you just need to paint the hood and seat in the correct white..

 

I did wonder how long the wheel weights would stay on it before being swapped to your 'orse :D

Yes waiting for the slightly better weather before I get the compressor out and start spraying, going to re paint the body then hood wheels and seat,

And the moment I had the tractor I'm the trailer to bring it home, I had already taken them off and put them on my horse in my mind ;) that was the first thing to be done ;)

I like your Cub, and thank you for the pics Charlie. I have a IHCC 1650. Like you, I'm more of a Wheel Horse person, but I do have a soft spot in my heart for the CC's.
