Cub Cadet 1000's came with a 10 hp Kohler engine, if this one in fact has a B & S engine, I would shy away from it because it is most likely a conglomeration of unknown parts, not to mention that the B & S engines weren't nearly as well built as the Kohler engines.

It is however possible that this is actually a Cub Cadet 1100, they were originally outfitted with a B & S engine. On the down-side, most Cub Cadet enthusiasts don't consider an 1100 to be a real Cub Cadet.

In any event, I wouldn't pay that much for a non running 1000 with a B & S engine or an 1100 (but I'm kind of a cheap-skate).

The bagger attachment is kind of a cool thing though, depending on its condition, it could be worth a couple hundred bucks to the right person.

Stop by and tell the guy, "I'm on my way to the ATM to get some money, you get that thing running and I'll take it when I get back". Then see how much the price drops.

The way I read his post, the bagger is powered by a B&S . That's how my Trac vac system is.
