My 149 Score!
After working on my 108 and getting it all spruced up ("Progress on 108 Rehab" thread), I got inspired by all your support and by reading about your projects.
Brought this home today. It starts easily and runs strong, Snow blower works. 48" deck looks good and solid. This tractor was well taken care of. Was told the single owner bought it new and traded it a few months ago. I bought it from the tractor dealership. Paid $600 for the whole rig. Do you think I did OK? (in Virginia). Even has a hitch of some sort on the back. (sleeve hitch?) I need to download the manual and figure out all the controls. It has a manual PTO clutch, and the forward/reverse hydraulics work fine. Not sure how the lift works, but I'll figure it out. Steering is pretty sloppy, but I know how to fix that. Needs chains and weights if it's going to blow snow. Here in the Richmond VA area, we don't get much snow, and I normally use the Ford 2000 with a 7 foot blade to clear the driveway and lane (about 1/2 mile total) to get out. But this blower will work well around the house and patio where the Ford is just too unwieldy or won't fit.

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.
