I bought the 73!
 

I went to my neighbor's to give him a price on the 73. I bought it for 100$. It will be getting restored and will be a show tractor only.Sorry Jude this one is mine!:biggrin2::beer2:Attachment 10153

Glad you bought it!

Thanks Mike! I'll have it soon as he opens the door on his wood shop.

Congrats! Nice looking 73 and a great price too! Looking forward to your progress once you get it.

hmmmmm
 

ConGrats !!! there has been alot of 73's being bought..............Whats the deal ha ha

They all want to be just like you Jay! Yours looks better too!:beer2:

Hmmm
 

They all look good!!!! All have character!!!! Can't wait for the build pictures!!!

Sam, Nice, glad you got it:biggrin2: It is a sweet model!


Jason, wondering the same thing:bigthink:. It's kinda funny as it's a low production # too.

73 numbers
 

So whats your serial number? wonder how many 73's were made?

Nice tractor, looking forward to some of your progress pictures.

Here ya go:http://tractors.wikia.com/wiki/Inter...l_Cub_Cadet_73

7,678 is what that states!!

Awesome find on your 73! :beerchug:

That's awesome, can't wait to see some videos of it. Are you going to do a detailed youtube series on the rebuild?

Nice score on the 73 Sam!
Your collection is growing!

thanks for the comments. Jay the serial number is U314188 It was made in Oct of 1969.

I will Dusty. Like 500passwords 129 I'm good at editing i'll see hw it goes. How is the 123 going?:beerchug:

It's coming along....very slowly. I've almost got enough for the next video, I'm going to detail how to remove the steering wheel (the way Matt G does it), and I've got some old stuff from before the new year of disassembling. So much going on around here with the kids, I hardly ever get to work on it these days, but I'm slowly making more time.

I can't wait to watch your rebuild, especially of such a cool model.
