Geez,
I never expected to get a brand new tractor when it was built in 1980. I have been looking for a 782 over the past couple years. Been holding out for a Series II for the fact they are rebuildable and have the filter provision. I bought this 782 with the motor it has. It was in great shape and runs good. Other than that, I don't have any problems with a Cub Cadet with any motor in it. So much for gettin' excited about finding a 782.

CC1450,
Thanks for the comment.
