Default 1250 project

I came across this parts 1250 for $100 with a whole bunch of good parts and I had already half way parted out my old 1250 So I thought I'd pick it up and make one good tractor out of all the parts I have laying around. I started off with just a frame and now this. I ordered a new wiring harness so it's got new wiring all around. As for the engine that came with the tractor. It had so little compression that when I tried to start it it would just sputter. Turns out one of the headbolts were so loose I could take it off by hand. I examined the cylinder and there was some "ovaling" But it hopefully won't cause too much blow by. It's starting to come together though I even found a $23 bolt on high back seat not perfect but its comfy.


PS: Dont mind my messy "workplace". Theres a method to my madness.

Looking good Connor way to go on the progress. We all work in different ways. I like the Original workbench, looks to be in great shape as well. It's awesome to score a parts tractor, makes the restores cost less when you have 2 of everything

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.
