Talk me out of this 1872
I found this 1872 for sale about 3 hours away. I have a 1650 with a 50a deck that i use to cut about 1 1/2 acres of my rougher yard. I have a 4 digit Original that is not working, that I was going to fix up. I currently push mow that area as the 50a's blades get pretty banged up cutting mesquite trees down. So I really want to get the Original up and running just to have it going. It will take around $300, with some tires and misc parts to rehab it into a worker. The seller says the super is running mows good. It still needs some parts from the pic that suggests it hasn't had the greatest of lives. The seller only wants $300 for the super. It almost seems to good to pass up. I don't really need another 50" in deck. I wish it had a Haban, but oh well. I'd say I have another $300 or so in the 1872 to get it up to snuff too. I do not have a shed to house the O much less a super. So what can you tell me about the super from the pics. I really don't know anything about them. I do love the 1650 and it works wonderfully.

Just picked one, up myself a couple weeks ago, There a beast to say the least, check the trans mounting bolt to make sure they are tight and not loose and all wallowed out. Mine were good, but I did install the axle reinforcement braces.
Check your flex disc joints and make sure your fan is still in position. Do a thorough cleaning to see where there maybe problem areas. Change fluids and filters and have a ball

I'm glad I don't live in your neighborhood! Around here you can pick up a fairly nice one for about 1/2 that if you're patient. I would go get that thing before someone else does. It doesn't actually look that bad. Those decals are junk a lot of the time anyway. Think about it with a new seat and no belt hanging from the hydraulic lever. It looks better already doesn't it?

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.
