Default Parts from an IH factory from the 70's

Well after meeting up with a fellow member today (J Ellif), we traded some parts and got to chit chatting. He showed me something I've never seen or heard of before. Apparently, these are a set of bumpers that went on a Cub Cadet 100 for use around the factory. They weren't anything official, just tacked up to be useful around the factory. Apparently, I'm told there was one guy whos job was to run from one end of the building to the other carting parts and guys around. Workers would stand on the bumpers and get carted from point A to point B. I don't know if this is true or not, but it's cool none-the-less. One bumper is on the floor, the other is leaning against the wall.

What's your take on this?

The story is probably more valuable than the parts. It would be nice to see a picture of them on the cub and guys being taxied from point A to point B on them.

Some beefy metal was used, they didn't want it break that's for sure. I'd say its plausible... I think they look pretty cool.

I agree guys; without pics, it's hard to swallow. I'll have to find out more details next time I talk to him

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.
