Again, great find and really nice of that guy giving it to you. Is you're dad going to trailer it down to you?

Sure there was garnold! As I have said, the 1x8/1x9 series wide frame IH Cub Cadets were the first series garden tractor to go to a painted starter generator in black. { please understand we see Alvy's 108 with no starter generator mounted }I also state my personal feelings { being a true, die hard IH Cub Cadet loyalist } about why I believe topic series garden tractor is a rare one to come across. The reader should respectably understand the writer is referring to his/her part of the country.
I also, believe the model 72, and 73 are a very rare model of IH Cub Cadet garden tractor. These were the ONLY two model tractor to use this style dash tower. Unlike the Cub Cadet { later became known as the Original } built from 1961 - 1963, and the 70/100, and along with the model 71 from the 1x2/1x3 series garden tractors that; all used the specific dash tower for a longer period of time. It is my personal feelings that models 108, 109, 72, and 73 can be considered rare.
I try not to spread a lot of b/s, and most always have something positive to comment on. I'm not in to childish debate, but adult only.
