First of all..... not all of us are "old timers". Unless people in their 30's are now old.
![]() Second, unless you want them, it doesn't "need" rear fenders. They were optional. Lots and lots of them built without them. Yes, you can put a sleeve hitch on the rear, but the Originals take one that is specific to them. Does anyone make repro headlights: No. But you can find OEM ones for sale. They aren't super rare, but you may have to look for a while. What can we tell you about it?? Not much from the single pic, but here's what I see: It's an early one as it doesn't have a creeper hole, but it does have the hole in the tower for the steering gear. Someone has repainted the wheels at least and was kind enough to overspray paint all over the tires. ![]() What's the series number of this bad boy?? |

I don't think I'm old (31) but sometimes I feel old...
Nice looking Original.

You don't need any fenders on that!
Of all my "O's" I only have two sets of fenders. 3 point hitches are a little scarce and pricey, but they're out there. The front tires are not factory. I was under the impression that the rear tires on Originals were the Firestone (someone help me out) Town and Country? They looked like an old fashioned bias ply snow tire. I didn't think they used that style tire until later. The hood decal is an incorrect style reproduction. There are many like that out there but it looks like the "International" is in Italics. The serial number should be crudely stamped into the reduction housing near the plug. Over-all a pretty nice looking "O"

Okay, this "old timer" thinks you have a good start with that tractor.
Lights aren't cheap, if you can find them. Those tires are not original equipment for the Original. As well as the other things that were pointed out, but hey, it's your tractor now, use it and enjoy it. Get us some more pictures when you can. Congrats on the "O" ![]()

Thanks for pointing out alot of these things guys. I use the term old timers as in the hobby a long time. I am 61 but a newbie at this. I didn't pay much for this tractor, but would like to tear it down and fix the problems I can. I will post some pics soon.

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.
