Great looking 1200. It looks pretty aggressive with those ags on it.

Thanks for the compliments! The pic is not that great took with my flip phone,sent it to a buddy and he sent it to me on fb. I had been working on it off and on for awhile now and finally got it done! It runs and drives great,the ags on the front seem to be alright,kinda bumpy,but not to bad. This is the tractor I grew up mowing the lawn with. Dad bought it in 1980 or 81 from the original owner who was an IH salesman and small engine mechanic. He bought it for his son to use and as a puller,cause it was the largest engine you could get in a gear drive 12hp. His son got bored with pulling and dad needed something larger to mow with so he tried it out. I remember being 10 or so sitting on it looking at it,it had ag tires on it when dad first looked at it,after he bought it he had turf tires put on it. I mowed with it for years and years,it had a short block put in it in 1994 or 95 and then we lost our farm and it didn't get used alot after the new engine,I bet the engine has less than 50hrs on it,runs like a top! Dad gave it to me and it sat around for along time . The clutch was bad a friend of mine put that in and rebuilt the carb for me,I brought it to my house in 2010 and started washing and tearing it apart! So thats my cub story,hope to have some more pics up sometime of what it looked like before and during this adventure in restoring! Thanks agin for the compliments! Brian

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.
