1955 Farmall Cub found on side of the road

This is my 1955 Farmall Cub tractor. It was found on the side of the road and looked like nothing more than a yard art piece when i acquired it. I brought it home and never touched it for almost 8 years. I decided in August of 2019 to start messing with it to have it in the Cotton Gin Festival Parade in Bostwick Georgia that October.  Got it running and driving and it still looked bad but it did run good so I put it in the parade and had a blast. 

It sat again until 2020 when covid hit, then I decided to tear it completly down and fix it right. I was out of work for 2 weeks that same year because I had gallbladder surgery and needless to say I got alot of work done on this Cub that I probably shouldnt have been doing. I would say I finished restoring it in 2022 but lets be honest you never truly finish. It has been a blast and has gotten so many compliments at shows. 

Thank you Steiner for parts and knowledge that have helped me with restore this beauty.
