Tales of O- My repair thread-1963 "O"
Well , I'm committed to this project, so rather than cluttering up the index, I'll create one thread to bore you with the adventures with my scruffy old "O". My goal is to get it serviceable first, then decide how to make it look presentable.
I got "Yellow Fever" some time ago, and resisted the urge until my MTD/Bolens died this fall which justified searching out my first Cub. I got a 123 to pick up the lawn duties , a 106 with a bunch of attachments, and a very scruffy "O" which was advertised in CL as "Woods fresh"  (S/N 59179)"Woods Fresh" as it turns out, meant "It has sat out in the rain in the woods of rural NC for at least 8 or 9 years since I've had it... and it wasn't running when it got here" It came complete with rust and 2 front flats, "custom" paint and "International" script of a big truck and 2 broken Hella driving lights that stuck out like jug ears. The first order of business was a bath and some tires that at least held air so I could roll it around the yard....and removing the driving lights.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
