682 confusion
 

Guys,

Help me out a little here. I have a good chance of picking up this 682 for chump change. Before I get too excited take a look at these pics. The emblem on the hood sez International Harvestor, the rear end looks CCC aluminum and the serial number "731320" sez 1984 CCC.

Is this a CCC in IH clothing???

Is the 17hp Kohler, Series II stock?

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

CCC started building x82's in 1982. They came in both red(sold at IH dealers) and yellow and white(sold at CCC dealers). You are right about the aluminum rear end and the series 2 is stock for that tractor. They changed to the series 2 somewhere around serial number 726,000 and the aluminum rear started at serial number 720000. So it probably is a true red one, just not built by IH.

Thanks AJ. What really threw me was the IH badging. I thought IH was out of the picture by 1984 and it would have had the CCC badging. This machine ran this summer and was used to cut grass but has not run since. I was told there was nothing mechanically wrong with it, maybe just water in the gas. If I told you that I could pick it up , with the 44 inch deck in good shape, for $100.00, what do you all say?

Where is it? Maybe I outta take a look at it for you first.:biggrin2.gif:

Oh, it's in plain view in my brother's, neighbor's yard in a seaside town in the state of Maryland. Stop by and take a look at it but be sure to get there before I do.:ROTF1:

I am also looking at a CCC 1712 in Virginia for about $350. Almost the same tractor as the 682 but the 1712 has hydro lift and two hydraulic ports up front. One or both may be posted here later next month for sale. Might keep one though to cut grass.

Weaverame:

Any Cub with a chassis serial number 700,001 or greater is CCC/MTD built.

On the Kohler, if the spec numbers are:

24,000 to 24,299 = Series I
24,300 & up = Series II

Like AJ mentioned, those guidelines are accurate.

The IH emblem was just a part that was used on the tractor. I have a 1984 784 that has IH signage all over it also.

I guess them spotting me any driving time from Arkansas is out of the question.

If you can't get both i'd definitely get the 1712 but getting both would be great and they're both definitely worth the asking prices.

Now Roland... You know that your Cub Cadet says 782 on the hood!! While 782 is the Cub Cadet Model number, the 784 number you cited is the CCC factory model code indicating standard equipment but is not the model of the tractor....
