To part or not to part - Cub Cadet 126
Well, the title pretty much answers the question. I drug this wayward 126 home the other night. It's missing a bunch of parts, but it was listed for cheap and I got it for cheaper, almost a Lew price. I have most of the missing stuff in inventory, and I bet I can find the rest at RPSD next week. But inventory is getting thin, due to the recent 129 and 122 that needed parts to bring them back to life. This 126 is going to live on and be turned back out into the working world as I just can't see myself parting out the 3rd rarest Cub when it's in good original condition. It will get a new wiring harness as most 1x6/7 series Cubs need one anyway, and this one is definitely hacked and fraying already. I think the K301 will be ok after a new head gasket and tuning; the clutch and trans seem intact although the tower has been welded where the pivot thingy for the clutch mounts up. No mower deck, but the mule drive is in good shape and has a pto belt for a 42" deck, which I have one in inventory to go on it. It would be nice if this Cub had lights or a creeper, but it's a 126 and the fact that it survived this long in limbo with the PO is reason enough for me to save it...

Tom, I think that you have answered your own question already, so I think you have a nice 126 there, which will be even nicer once you give it some TLC that is long overdue!

You done good to grab that 126! Looks to have all the major pieces that define it's model, make, and year. If it were me, I would move the less-desired 122 to the back burner and make something better with this 126 being of more value and collectability,...seriously, the 126 looks really good!

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.
