Ken Updike Knows His Cubs!!!
Ken Updike has put together a teriffic history of the International Harvester Company's Farmall Cub and Cub Cadet tractors! Complete with serial numbers and great color photos this book is a MUST HAVE for anyone who owns (or would like to own)one of these GREAT little tractors.IH built the Farmall Cub and Cub Cadets in Louisville, KY and it was more the just coinsidence that they had a lot of the same engineering features in common!

For Cub and Cub Cadet tractor lovers
This book provides information for Cub collectors and hobbyists that makes interesting and sometimes fascinating reading. Mr. Updike looks at the Cubs and Cub Cadets from a sentimental perspective that is not available in any other book I have seen. I learned more about my beloved Cub than I expected to. The color pictures alone are worth the price, and leave you lusting for more. Grammar teachers take note: tthe text suffers from cursory editing. It is a little rough in spots.

Cub luster's take note
I had this book recommended to me, because I am looking for a Cub Lo-Boy to mow a few acres of lawn. I didn't know a Cub from a Lo-boy Cub from a Numbered Series Lo-boy. This book lays out the history, as well as the specifications of the different years and series. I also contains serial number listings of each year series and corrolates them to the equipment and specs for that year. I'm well pleased and it has made me much more aware of what to look for as I scour the countryside in search of my new ride! I am not interested in the Cub Cadet portion, but it has a lot of good pictures and covers a couple chapters, so I'm sure you'd find some good info there, as well...
