Tires look like original though. That is a serious hack.

Only a matter of time before the wheels, bearings, axle, tires, spindles and/or the steering box gives up the ghost.

Bet that's a bear to steer!!
I suppose he thinks it's worth big bucks as well!!
I would have at least put a 392 Hemi in it or maybe a ram inducted 413!!

I'm sure it steers effortlessly!! the real problem would be keeping the front wheels on the ground, so it can steer at all
As far as problems, the little 5/8" drive shaft would soon twist like licorice,
--------even with a little f**d motor Ha,LOL
Ok,
I should give him slack here, so I will.

I Remember watching EJ potter with his first chevy powered motorcycle called "the widow maker" at Detroit Dragway, back in the day.

Now one can buy a "boss hog"
if you are not familiar with it, google "the Michigan madman"
He was a pioneer to say the least.
--------- a crazy SOB, and I say that with great respect!

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.
