Hello,

I’m looking for Cub Cadet Advice.

The situation: we have the following items we are looking to sell and would like help from those knowledgeable in this area to determine its value.

* International Cub Cadet Garden Tractor S/N: #7501 (Note: The original engine has been replaced with a Wisconsin motor.)

* 42” Snow Blade

* IH 38” Rotary Mower Deck. “Twin blades”.
The deck has had less than two or three hours of mowing since the reconditioning.*

* Original 27 page Operator’s Manual in excellent condition. (1 014 250 R1. 2-3-61---71/2B. )

* Advertising booklet, (16 pages) “Guest-Try a CUB CADET soon!”

If you would like to discuss this PLEASE Email me with Cub Cadet in the subject line, give me a telephone number, approximate times you are available and I will call you at my expense.

Unfortunately, the Wisconsin motor greatly reduces the value of the tractor in that it had a Kohler K-161 originally in it. The 4 digit serial number is attractive but to a collector, it would mean finding the correct motor for it.

It would be most helpful if you were to post pictures of the equipment you want value to.

Pictures .. She's not a great beauty....is it a fast jump to the steel crucible or does someone see some fine points in her worth saving?

What's it worth for scrap? Gotta be worth double that for parts. Unforunately the wisconsin conversion has ruined the hood, grille, and probably the frame as far as a collector is concerned.

Not trying to lowball you, it is really not worth a whole lot in that shape.

If you are trying to maximise your return, put each item listed in your ad on Ebay separately.

Yikes,
I agree with the other two posters - that Wisconsin conversion has pretty much ruined too many parts on it. And with the rust covering so much of the tractor, it isn't worth much as a whole tractor. You would get more return by selling parts off of it than selling it as a whole.

IMHO, that would be a good parts tractor.

Time and Tide wait for no man and when forced by economic decisions into irreversible designs you end up with an old girl like this. I saved the original engine for years but then gave it up for educational purposes. She is what she is, at this point at least she does not need feed.

What parts would be desirable from this girl?

I figure the deck and blade a separate units, then what?
