CC 129 Restore
As some of you might have saw in the "Restoration Tips" thread...I have been planning on getting a 129 from a guy who's grandfather (that my parents and grandparents happen to have known for years) bought it new.
 The grandfather is now in a nursing home, with not much time left, unfortunately.  So, with knowing the family that bought it new, I am going to have this thing restored...and hopefully be able to show it to the grandfather. I told the grandson, which has become a friend of mine, my plans...and he says it would bring back a lot of memories for him, and that he would love to see it looking nice again, also. Today, he brought it out. After messing around with it...She's alive!!  Here's some pictures, notice the black replacement engine...

Got it power washed! Looks a lot better...
Tomorrow I'm going to get the engine out, and start dissembling it. Talked to the guy painting it for me, who also knows the family really well, and will be taking everything but the engine (I will be painting it) to him next week sometime. When he is done all I will have to do is drop the engine in.

After power washing the trans and driving it around a little, got to seeing a little oil on the relief valves...In this case, do I need new valves, or new o-rings?
 Wouldn't worry about it if I were not repainting it.

I think the engines in the later 129's came stock black if i remember right? Looking forwars to seeing it done, has a great cause to it.

Yes, your relief valves have gone sneakers up. There are 2 ebay options from a seller named "timarca."
1 - Send him your valves and they will be rebuilt like new for a price quite a bit less than buying new ones 2 - Same seller has just come out with a version of these valves that have a removable C clip, making the O-rings and other innards replaceable by the user for just a few dollars in the future.

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.
