Now here is something you will probably never see the likes of again.  This is a 1952 Farmall Cub with an aftermarket Backhoe attachment.  This beauty is fully functional and is another of Rick's one-of-a-kind creations.

 

You have to start somewhere and in this case it is a disassembled Cub ready for a new coat of paint.

 

 

 

Here it is almost together.  It just needs a front bucket and this baby will be ready to be put to work.

 

 

Fully assembled and fully functional.  You couldn't ask for anything more from a Cub.  Looks aren't everthing though.  Will this thing actually work?

 

 

Absolutely!

As seen here you can do as much with this little critter as you can with any other backhoe. This is a picture of Rick's dad, Dale, at the controls installing a drainage tile

 

 

Like everything else that a Cub does, this backhoe edition keeps on a gittin' it.
