New 682 (I may have a problem)
Ok. I think I'm done getting cubs for a while. Just picked up my 3rd red one in the last couple months.
Snagged a well used IH-built 682 with a KT-17 II and a decent 50C off CL. It's not running at the moment, but turns over well and has compression. It's sat for a while, and has a LONG list of needs, but it's mostly all there. Definitely needs a coil, and probably a carb rebuild. It's a walbro though. Ugh. Once it gets running who knows what I'll find. It apparently was repainted with a mop at one point, the electrics are a mess, it doesn't run, the steering is sloppier than a newborn's diaper, the tin is a bit dented up on the left side, the tunnel cover looks like a pair of honey badgers got into a fight inside, and there are random holes drilled in the fender pan, but I needed another project apparently. Probably just going to pull the engine, go through it, and tear this whole guy down. No hydraulics to mess with, though, which will keep it a bit simpler. It's interesting how much higher the deck lifts on the manual lift 682 vs my 782.

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.
