Default Mystery tractor

Hi everybody

My first post here. This a great forum.

Is somebody can say if this tractor (see pic) is a Cub Cadet under a bad paint job ? And if yes which one ? Some details looks like a cub cadet but some dont. BTW I have only a picture of it I never see it for reel.

Thanks for any input.

Martin

Sears Suburban, probably about a 1966 model judging by the square fenders. As pointed out probably a 10 or 12 horse, which will be a Tecumseh if it's the original.

While not a Cub Cadet, do not count it out as an excellent GT, because it is. I wouldn't give mine up for anything. Great torque, excellent transaxle, highly maneuverable under power and when pushing them around the shop. They are real pulling workhorses.

Second the Sears GT! And they are very capable tractors. I had one I painted match a Cub used it for pulling the wagon around the yard.

Those are stout old tractors. I had a 71 SS-12 my father purchased new, rebuilt the engine once, with 42" deck, front and rear manual lift blades, (the rear blade is on 1450 #1), and a manual 3 point hitch. Due to my aging process, the Sears was sold, (I still kick my butt), and replaced with 1450 #1, (dual hydraulics), which lead to 1450 #2, (single hydraulics), which will lead to?

Thank you for all the excellent input. I'm looking for a cheap CC project and I saw this one advertised for $100. I will think about it.

Thanks again

Martin

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.
