I don't care at the end of the day all it's still a garden tractor no more no less. I would much rather see one in work clothes than something that's stored in the back of your garage lookin real purdy under a blanket.

You are 100% correct Tim. I just had it on CL for a couple weeks and this guy text me and next thing I knew he was counting out 20, 100 dollar bills. I also sold the 4 digit a couple weeks ago for 1600.00. Now I have the recoil machine to tear down and get back togeather. The fun of all this for me is working on them and learning. Once it's all done, sell?

My original question was not so much about hardware since I think most Cubs where made in modern time with modern hardware. I mean more like parts such as steering wheel cap emblems, nos decals and nos battery cover for the diesels. These parts command big money due to being very scarce. Can that cost be passed on if selling the entire tractor. I would guess it depends on what the buyer wants to do with the tractor. Only one of my tractors is a worker. My goal is have my tractors as close to showroom as possible without restoration. All original or nos parts and minor paint touch up. I don't think it would make sense to put these high money parts on a worker just to get messed up. I guess I broke my own rule because I replaced most of my hardware with stainless steel.

Charles, I think it's the one guy out of ten, that cares if all parts are original, or NOS. And that one guy wants originality, and nothing else.
I think, you would never recoup your money, if you "had" to buy NOS parts to put something back the way it was. You lost. I don't think our hobby will ever get as picky about originality as with vehicles. Check out what they are getting for numbers matching cars now days. And if it's not numbers matching, at the very least it has to be date code CORRECT, and we'll never see that kind of "need/want". Don't have a crystal ball, but it's unlikely. As for hardware. I know you never asked, but line two identical tractors side by side, one with the IH bolts, and one with plain bolts. I'll bet, no one will look at the plain ones and say something like, Wow, that's cool, check out the plain bolts. But, I have had people that weren't familiar with Cub Cadets that saw the IH stamped bolts, and said, "WOW..." And those that are familiar with Cubs, remark how good the bolts look. Different strokes for different folks.

I would personally pay more money for an untouched, all original condition IH Cub Cadet. That's your best, most experienced answer that has been given yet!

My tractors never had IH bolts since they are CCC. If I had them I guess I would keep them. For me the fun was in the hunt. My goal was to get a good example of all 4 72 series supers. It took me about eight years and over 27 tractors to get there. The last parts I was searching for was the original battery covers for the diesels and I just got them. So now what. I only take them out once a year for plow day. I recently debated selling or keeping and decided to keep them but now I am thinking sell and start a new project. I think if I parted them out I would make a small fortune but it would be sad to destroy such nice and complete machines. All have under 1000 hrs.

I have 2 big tins of bolts on my work bench all the time.
One marked IH bolts and the other marked WP bolts. When I run across either, they get the vinegar and wire brush treatment and a shot of light oil and tossed in the tin. And I often find myself with them dumped on the counter searching for one to mount a voltage regulator or whatnot on a Cub. On another note, some cubs I have run across have a mixture of both IH and WP bolts. Case in point, the 104 I finished this spring just in time for RPRU, and yes, I know, it has the wrong front axle!! Plain hardware store variety bolts jump out at me when looking at so called "restored" tractors, just like red, green and yellow batteries in 1950's cars do at a show as well as all kinds of hop up crap under the hood. one glance at cars like that and I just keep on walking. |

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.
