BHunter 1,651 #1 Posted March 29, 2019 I’m bringing this one back from the dead. It had a rough life and owners that didn’t take care of it. It rough now but will look great before we bring it to the Big Show. Dillon took it all apart, sanded it and now I’m doing the bodywork/ paint. 5 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WVHillbilly520H 10,369 #3 Posted March 29, 2019 (edited) Of course you now have to tell the tale of the "white" horse as it has been spotted photo bombing, Good luck with the father son project, my dad and I refurbished his Cub Cadet Original 30+ years.

Very nice cub. It’s great to make these memories. I hope my son will post pics 30 years from now. I’m restoring the white horse for a customer. The red horse is priority though. I think the photo bombing is due to jealousy because it’s on the back burner now haha. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are going to sandblast every piece. It’s pretty rusty. It wasn’t as nice as the one from your town. 10 hours ago, jabelman said: looking good, are you doing full paint on that one? the 69 fastback is pretty sweet too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My son will be cruising it around there. He took pictures of the foot throttle on your son’s burb last year. He has some ideas on how he wants to make one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

His is the inspiration for ours. You might need to put a bigger motor on yours if he wants to keep up with the black burb on cruise night. Haha. Hopefully we don’t need rain coats this year! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
