I've got a 109 and a 1650, both hydros. I especially like the 1650 steering wheel position, seat/foot rest arrangement, lots of room. A very comfortable tractor.
To my question... I've got a 1200 that I picked up a year or so ago that seems complete, less side shields. Hood and front hood stand over the front axle are removed. Really bought the tractor for the 3 pt hitch on it. However..... Now I'm thinking about digging into it and see if it will run. What are the strengths and weaknesses of the 1200 vs a 128? I've got a 126 which I like, but have more parts, decks, etc for the WF models and maybe I can get this 1200 going or save me some hassle by getting a running 1200 or a 128 instead - if it's a better tractor. BTW - with our irregular shaped/lumpy yard, the 126 in second gear is way to fast for mowing and first gear is slow. Would the 1200 have a slower set of gears in it? Any info on 1200 vs 128 is much appreciated. Thanks! Bill

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.
