OK, here's my new to me 126 you convinced me to buy..
Here is it as it sat close to the back road behind the corner of a house. As I drove by my eyes caught the flash of Cub Yellow.. I turned around to check it out. I liked it enough to leave a message on their door about it. Gave them my name and number. He called me and the rest is history. You guys said I should not pass it up even though I already have 14. This one was made in Jan. 1972 $150.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psc2e3f2c5.jpg I went there this morning expecting a rough Cub not running.. Heck, he puts a battery in it and it fires right up! I don't know what he was talking about compression release problems over the phone. With it running it sure made loading a lot easier. The shifter has the usual broken lever where it will spin but that is no problem. A temp. fuel tank is installed. Don't know what happened to the original. Has the mule drive but no deck. I have plenty of decks. I am glad the mule drive is there... And what kind of wheel weights are these? Nice blade also. Looks like a new coil and condenser. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps0b4b6ba1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps259384b7.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps9f558fdf.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps159103d5.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...pscbcdea49.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps3c0e5c23.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...ps814ab792.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...psf0dc48ca.jpg I hope my health problems improve like the doctors say it will, then I can look forward to just cleaning it up and doing what it takes to get running sweet. Not going to do much more than that. |
Very nice 126, John! The wheel weights look like Bolens weights.

Hope you were wearing a mask while you robbed that guy:biggrin2: I want the seat if you sell it, it looks comfy. Seriously that's a sweet ride for 150 congrats.

Good score.... I hang around a few Bolens forums but havent seen those weights, and they are not anything like mine which are oem cast on my '57 Ride a Matic.

Must have been garage kept most of the time. Even gooder price. :beerchug: |
