QA42 snow blower restoration
Starting a thread in the right spot for this work.
Will get some pictures posted in the next few days. (most of of the pictures are in another thread, "added more IH equip", I will move most over here.) Current stratus is that it is 95% disassembled and about 40% cleaned and painted. Several new parts will be required plus lots of new hardware. I will have some questions, and have been trying to find information on here about the restoration and operation of these attachments. As usual, suggestions and comments are welcome! I will try to set the large structure of the body in the electrolysis tank tomorrow. Regards, Chris

Looking forward to your work Chris - I have a QA42-A that I'm going to run as-is this winter, then it'll spiff it up for next year.
ps - it's a "thrower," not a "blower." A blower is two stage, the QA42-A is a single stage snow thrower. You probably knew that...

Dave,
I am still learning, So I will try to use the snow thrower term. Thanks! I like the international logo that Bsyphrit used, they look real good! BTW nice job on the restoration work on your snow thrower is that a 36 inch? I have several parts that I need to get on order and losts of hardware mostly various sizes of carrage bolts. Seemed that International loved these I do need to build/find a rod and u-joint for turning the chute. Mine is gone! I may not get the body of the snow thrower in the tank tonight. Since I have several small parts that need to be done first. After getting the auger out and closer examination I found that the inside of the body has a lot of rusted pock marks. I was thinking of filling these with body filler and suggestions? I will try to get some pictures on here tonight. Do most folks put on new drive chain? Mine is really rusty but might still work? Soaked with Blaster right now. BTW the paint is going to be off white just like I used for the 147 hood and rims. I know this may not be exact color. And the next owner can change it. Found that the electrolysis did not even start to budge the safety sticker on the chute. (Sorry for the spelling, my spell check is off at work) Also went and looked at a #1 cart near me. ( this is the guy that has the 125) Owner does not want to sell to bad. I told him I really need it bad! He's thinking about it. Some pitted rust in the bed, but a solid #1 dump cart. Setting outside in the weather  Maybe another thread on that later?Regards, Chris

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.
