Default Hello from PA

Hey all, I'm Rob.

Been a member here for a while but this is the first time I've posted anything. Back a few months ago I bought a '72 IHCC 129 and a '84 CCC 782 with factory 3 point, both in semi-running condition. With a little time, and some TLC they are both running good. I used the 782 with IH blade to clear snow out of my driveway and lately to grade my front yard out to get it ready to re-seed. Also have a MTD/CC 1415 that I mow with. I have learned a good bit just from wondering through the different threads on here!

I plan to start "restoring" the 129 soon, its originally a local tractor to my IH dealer that I get tractor parts from, it still has the dealer sticker on it. I'm a bit of a Farmall collector just starting to get into garden tractors.

heres some pics...

Thanks everybody!

started tinkering with the 129 this morning after I got home from work (nightshift Machinist). Removed front wheels and popped the original tires right off easily since they were so dry rotted. Both wheel bearings are gunked up but hopefully with some soaking I can get them free and then re-grease them.

I plan on getting Tri Rib fronts for it and Bar tires for the back, going for the tractor look. is Miller Tire the cheapest place to get them?

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.
