Is $1900 to much for a completely restored 70? Includes a restored 38" deck. Has headlights, groat light and fenders.

Completely restored has different meanings to different people.
IMHO, If it was not completely disassembled (EVERY nut, bolt and washer removed) all bearings, gaskets and seals replaced. Completely rebuilt engine, including new rod, piston, rings, valves, valve guides, springs, keepers, governor, grind or polish crank, ect. Rebuilt clutch, and PTO. New paint and decals. Rebuilt S/G, wire loom, key switch, voltage regulator and starter solenoid. And tires. Then it is not "Completely restored". There are those who will claim that they have a "completely restored" whatever, when in reality they have an old POS that they wiped off with sandpaper and sprayed some paint at. If this 70 was in fact really restored, then yes, I'm sure it is worth the money. If you include your time, I don't think you can restore one for that amount. Short of winning a huge lottery, I would never pay that much for one. But I'm a real cheapskate.

from what I understand, there is $2700 involved in the restoration. The only thing not replaced is the tires. I know the engine has been rebuilt, I don't know to that extreme. Here's a photo. I am going to call the gentleman today and see if we can make a deal. I would prefer one completed, I don't have the know how to do it myself. I look at it like this, the big box tractors are as much or more but are no where near the quality.

Here another one: http://burlington.craigslist.org/grd/4600702929.html
$1500 ![]() I must be a cheapskate too since I never pay that much for any of those but if your time is limited and it is not a spray can look like new shitty job like Sam just wonderfully describe why not? Your the one who pay for after all.

Both of those are outstanding looking tractors. If your looking for a finished machine then the $$$$'s are reasonable. The time, dollars and effort to get one to that condition is considerable.

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.
