We like to build with IH Cub Cadet 102 mowers because of their narrow frame and shift transmission. To get the look of a full-size tractor most of our little tractors have their frame lengthened as soon as they are stripped down to the chassis.
For our similar style IH tractors two different grills were built; this one being built to replicate the IH 1466 grill. New hood and fenders were added as were larger rear tires and 3 rib front tires along with several other additions.
