If the cub runs well in my area it could bring $1200-2000. Not sure what the yellow one is but looks like something I have seen before

The yellow one appears to be an early Economy that got a trim-as-required engine swap.

The yellow tractor is a Jacques Tractor. Google it, some info. there. A Cub with cult. here in SE Michigan go 1200 to 2000 $ depending on tires, paint, hyd.,engine cond. and if you have a use for it.

A Country Squire- the slightly fancier version of an Economy. That hood hack-job is factory issue!

You should buy the Cub Larry. Your gardening is amazing. The trouble is the tiller becomes more and more work as we age while cultivating with the Cub is FUN.

The cub looks pretty good except I am no fan of the spring type cultivators. but then I live in NC where the soil has a lot of red clay in it. (Makes good bricks) I bought my uncle's cub when he went to the rest home. It had those cultivators on it, but I have since converted it to the spring-trip shovels because the spring type just wouldn't penetrate the soil around here.

Im no longer doing the big gardens,,just small plots here in NJ,,My big garden days are only a memory now,,wish I had a cub back then,,always dreamed of one,,never got one

I've wanted a cub for years and now finally have one but it took to many years to get it. I also want a skid steer

On second look Warbaby is correct. The yellow one is a County Squire tractor. A Jacques looks similar and has a Frazer 2cyc.engine.

The yellow tractor could be either a Country Squire or an Economy real way to know is look at the data the seat spring has been added originally the seat mounted in the 2 posts and had a valve spring in each one for cushioning the 2 post seated ended in early 1959, and the factory never cut the hood and had a stater/gen mounted there, the starter/gen were mounted on top of the bellhousing adapter, they are nice fun tractors I have a 1958 Country Squire

And FYI, the Country Squire was not a fancier version of the Economy, it was a mail order tractor no dealers many ads in Popular Mechanics and mags of that in the early 50's until 1962. But the Country Squires were generally a bit fancier as they came standard with hood and fenders but electrical (starter/gen) and lights were options. The one pictured is a 58 or 59 by the seat mounting and the steering gearbox mount
