Default It's here...

Got a "special" delivery yesterday. Finally got my wife's late grandfather's 149 that he purchased new. He traded in a 1950 Farmall Cub Demonstrator toward the 149!! It's been garage kept its whole life and not too bad looking for a 40 year old machine. Also has a front blade for it.

Thanks guys... It's got a pretty good looking IH push blade also. I'll have to get a pic of it. The only issue with it is the belt on the starter ripped when they were loading it. I need to find that belt, I figure Napa or AutoZone should have it. Just need to get the ref #. This is my first cub that hasn't came from out of state either, even though it made a 5.5 hour trip!

I hope your left handed....you'll see what I mean when you drive it. The first 1X9 I drove took me a little getting use to, I kept using my right hand but nothing was there....guess I'm a 82 series guy. That's cool it gets to stay in the family. Congrats Gary, what are your plans for 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.
