Help with identifying our Cub Cadet.
Hello! I'm looking for some help identifying my older Cub Cadet tractor. I bought it off of craigslist earlier this year. The gentleman who sold it just called it a "60's era Cub Cadet" and since it was running and came with a book I thought I had enough info. I later found when I looked closer that the book was only for the Kohler engine, not the full tractor.
Unfortunately, our tractor along with my husband went over a ditch into a creek a few weeks ago so the tractor needs a bit of work (my husband broke a few bones, got a few new parts himself, but is thankfully otherwise okay!) A good group of people helped get the tractor out of the creek so now I'm ready to start researching what I will need to make her work again (she almost started so it may not be much!). Unfortunately, I can't find the serial number or model number to even know where to start. I took a bunch of pictures hoping this will help narrow down an ID. I'm going to try and add as many of them as I can to this post - but if not I made an album on photobucket and I think I added the link properly. Please let me know if there are any other pictures that would help, or exactly where to look for a serial number or model number and I'll do my best to get those. Thank you in advance!

That is either a model 70 or 100. The engine looks to be a 10hp so I'm gonna say it is a model 100. Sorry to hear your husband going in the creek. With the exception of a few broken bones glad he is OK.

First, welcome to OCC......
 The tractor is of the 70/100 Series. The ONLY difference between them is the Horsepower of the motor, 7HP or 10HP. To determine the horsepower, look at the Kohler Engine Tag. If it indicates a K161 = 7HP, or if it indicates K241 = 10HP. It "appears" to be a 10HP Cub Cadet 100. The 10HP motor sets a little taller than the 7HP model.

Thank you all very much for your help! I had no clue these tractors had such enthusiasts. But after owning one for a few months I can see why they do. I can't wait to get ours back up and running well.
So glad to have found you all, I appreciate the help!

So did it sit in water and if so, how long?
For starters, I would clean out the fuel tank, new air filter, install new fuel filters where applicable, clean out the carburetor and bowl, change the oil and gas her up. I'd bet she fires up.

Here is another view of the second location that Merk provided. Once you know the serial number you Can find production numbers at:
https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...ead.php?t=7114 You will need the Chassis Service Manual located at: https://www.onlycubcadets.net/forum/...ead.php?t=4640 and the parts manual at: http://www.oldengine.org/members/hir...et_manuals.htm

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.
