Cub Cadet "Original" is here!
 

Hi,

last Saturday, i got my "new" Cub Cadet "Original", it is in a terrible Condition, and will need a lot of Work to bring it to run.

I don't find a ID Plate at the Tractor, only at the Motor, it's a K 161. I don't know the Year of Buildt.

Engine cranks, Coil is missing, Steering Column have much much play, no Clutch, and no Brake going.

Look at the Seat Pan, o think, it's not the Original one, is that right?

Congrats on your Original, Georg! You are correct, that isn't the original seat for the Original. They had a solid pan seat with no holes.. :beerchug:

Nice one!
 

That's awesome Georg!! Seeing Cub Originals in other countries is cool!

First picture is of serial # stamp and 2nd is one of my Originals and that is what the seat should look like, without the welds hopefully. Have fun and look forward to the restoration pictures:beer2:

Georg,

That will be a great cub original now that it is in your hands. I can tell how excited you are to have it and look forward to seeing pictures of your updates!! They really are "INTERNATIONAL" Cub Cadets.......it's great to see that confirmed once again.

Cub Cadet 123

thanks for the Answers. It will not give Pics of Progress in the next Time, i will make the Tractor to Pieces, and want stored it in, because, i don't have Time to work at it. In my Garage waits a IH 453 for make ready, and sell, and my IH 633 E (Fruitgrowing-Tractor), is waiting for his Transmission.

Next Year in August, we have the big european Mc Cormick, IH and Case IH Meeting, here in Germany, i will visit it with my both Cub Cadets.

@Hubman, i'm not new at this Forums, i'm User since October 2008, in December 2008, i got my first Cub Cadet, it's a 782 from 1984, the "Original" is my second one, and my next one, i hope is a 149, or 169.

I found the Number of my Cub, it's 11278,

mfg Georg
