The OP does need to check engine hours that was a good thing to hit on regardless of engine type.... also to the OP you have gotten a lot of great info on this thread I hope to see pics of a 682 right beside of your 1250

I didn't mean to come off as saying aluminum rear was an issue just not as good as the cast on your 1250. We are running 2 aluminum rears 1541, 1440 with zero issues.
I really do appreciate everyone sharing their knowledge, and I hope to pay some of it back. It might have to be with beer or guitar lessons though. hahaha!

I haven't decided anything yet, but here are a couple pictures. I'm still waiting on details of engine hours. I honestly think that they don't have any idea. Notice the rear fender is a little caved in.

The 682 looks pretty good. Looks like it will clean up nicely!
I did notice the remote filter looks like it is attached to the frame.

Not a bad looking 682! It's pretty common for the rear fender to be dented in.

Wait...you're in Sterling? So am I! I should have kept up with this thread earlier! How's it going, neighbor?

Note that there looks to be an oil filter mounted by the footrest in this pic. If that's what it is, then it's for sure a Series II (or Mag?) but I think that's already been established.

I'd grab it. Looks to be in overall great shape with an upgraded engine and that red paint doesn't look to be faded with original footrest. That cub seems to have been taken care of and the small dent in the fender is an easy fix.

If you don't get it, then jimbob200521 will.

A m-18 will not have a visable ignition coil attached to the plug wires, it is under the cooling tins and of course no breaker points.
If you see a coil, it is a series 2

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.
