"From back when Cub Cadet was built by International Harvester. Heavy steel frame, cast iron front axle and transaxle. Even the grill housing is cast iron. 14 hp Kohler engine. I'm pretty sure this machine will be around another 40 years with only regular maintenance. Hydrostatic trans and hydraulic lift."

"I recently purchased my Cub Cadet from a neighbor whose husband pasted away. While it's a little rough around the edges, it's a very sound tractor. She has a Danco front loader that makes my life way easier. My plans are to use it all summer and then completly resore it over the winter. Anyone who can help me with getting original decals, I would really apprecaite it. Go IH."
