Hello from central Ohio
Hello,
I have been lurking this site for a short time and drooling over all of your tractors. I recently purchased a zero turn mower because I am mowing my aging parents lawn. I had a cheap Cub Cadet I got from a big box store and it served me well for years. I sold it after getting the zero turn. Mistake! I miss it for pulling the roller, sprayer etc.. So I get this idea to get a old cub and fix it up, was looking for either a 105, 125 or a 72 model. Well it turns out a friend of my son late father had "some old tractors" and he was wanting to make some room.
We set up a time to go and look, wow this guy had some neat old tractors. I didn't see any cubs but a 1650, it was complete but not running. I wasn't interested in it, have my heart set on something older and smaller. He told me that he had a cub in the barn so I crawled back under a mountain of stuff and found a 105. No motor but he said he had it in the other barn. He showed it to me but it was a 12 hp so not the right motor. Then he said he had another cub out back.
To make this long story short I left with all 3 cubs, two motors, a 42 inch snow plow. And a promise he would call me and give me anything else that was a cub part. All of this for less than two hundred bucks.
I will have lots of questions! I hope to learn a lot from all of you.
Dan
