Cc 1440
 
Hey everyone! Does anyone know much about the 1440? I found one on craigslist and I am thinking about purchasing it. They are asking a $1000. I believe this Cub was made by MTD, but it similar features to my 149. It's in my area and I went to look at it last night. It appears to be in excellent shape and with only 330 hours. I am just a little confused. I expected it to be more similar to MTD, but it's not. I was really surprised. The guy is firm on the price. Any information about this tractor would be greatly appreciated.

Just a quick update. I bought the tractor today. It's amazingly clean and seems to be in great shape. I am unsure of the year, but I understand it could be as old as a 1992. Hydro lever seems to be stiff in its operation. Hopefully its just from not being used.

What is the serial number?

Serial number is 839752

It is a 1993 Model. I can't be specific on the month but am guessing somewhere around April or May. The Serial numbers for 1993 went from 836,001 to 851,000.

DX3. Thanks for the information. The guy I purchased it from was unsure of the year. It was his fathers. Was a MTD built cub cadet?

That model is a CCC or Cub Cadet Corporation model. Essentially MTD. They bought out Cub Cadet back around 1982.

Congrats on the 1440. They are a great tractor. I'll have had mine for a year Wednesday. I really love it and have put it through more abuse than a similar tractor would be able to handle, and it has taken that abuse with flying colors. I love it. The Briggs Vanguard is a fantastic motor.
