Default Tractor info for show

hi guys here is what a wrote about my cub cadet 122 for my first show

thanks thad

Hi everyone I am a 1966 international harvester cub cadet 122 12 hp. I still retain my original power plant which is a cast iron block kohler k301as 12hp electric start. Some other specs are a 3speed transmission with a high and low manual lift 23x8.50x12 rear tires 16x6.50x8 tires I have a weight of 800 pounds. I was born in Louisville Kentucky in February of 66 I was sold as a basic no frill machine I was $905. Most of my history is a blank so we will start where my history is know. I was purchased by Ron in 2001 or so to help with yard work I was used for that for several years until I was having issues staying running so I was parked . After several years of sitting my current owner thad say the benefit of using me so I was pulled out of my parking spot. I have received TLC and have been extremely useful for my current owner on the 4 acres I have plowed dirt, snow mowed the lawn pulled trailers around the yard. I still ware my work clothes and will wear them proudly as I am used weekly for some yard work .I have had several accessories added to me. They include headlights and taillight which was a $31.25 option, wheel weights which was $12.75 option I also have a spring assist. My other options include creeper gear which was $45 option also I have 3 point hitch which was a $14.50 option also high flotation front tires which was $11 option and also a sleeve hitch adapter which was $12. I also have several other attachments brinly tt100 which is a $22.50 attachment also I have a brinly pp100 plow which was $55.00 option. Some other attachments include brinly cc 525 cultivator which was $48 attachment also a 38inch mower deck which was a $139 attachment. all that added up would have been 1,296 dollars in 1966 that would be 9,639.51 in 2016 as you can see they were expensive but they were your precursor to your sub compact today. They were built to except ground engaging attachments if you want a vintage tractor but do not have the space to keep a big farm tractor consider a vintage garden tractor. Thank you all for your time.

Hi everyone. I am a 1966 International Harvester Cub Cadet 122 12 hp. I still retain my original power plant which is a cast iron block Kohler K301AS 12hp electric start. Some other specs are a 3 speed transmission with a high and low range creeper gear, manual lift for implements, 23x8.50x12 rear tires and 16x6.50x8 front tires. I have a weight of 800 pounds. I was born in Louisville Kentucky in February of 66. I was sold as a basic no frill machine. My price then was $905.

Most of my history is a blank so we will start where my history is known. I was purchased by Ron in 2001 or so to help with yard work. I was used for that for several years until I was having issues staying running so I was parked . After several years of sitting, my current owner Thad saw the benefit of using me so I was pulled out of my parking spot. I have received TLC and have been extremely useful for my current owner on the 4 acres. I have plowed dirt, moved snow, mowed the lawn and pulled trailers around the yard. I still wear my work clothes and will wear them proudly as I am used weekly for some yard work .

I have had several accessories added to me. They include headlights and taillight which was a $31.25 option, wheel weights which was $12.75 option and I also have a spring assist to help lifting the various implements. My other options include creeper gear which was $45 option. I also have 3 point hitch which was a $14.50 option, high flotation front tires which was $11 option and a sleeve hitch adapter which was $12.

I also have several other attachments Brinly tt100 which is a $22.50 attachment also I have a Brinly pp100 plow which was $55.00 option. Some other attachments include Brinly cc 525 cultivator which was $48 attachment also a 38inch mower deck which was a $139 attachment.

If you want a vintage tractor but do not have the space to keep a big farm tractor consider a vintage garden tractor. Thank you all for your time.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
