Default 1962 Original Cub Cadet

Does anyone have an idea of the fair market vaulue, or collectors price of this machine? I am seriously thinking of selling it on eBay. I have had it since 1979, and rebuilt most of it in 1982. It has been repainted. The 7 HP has been over hauled, grille lights updated,. Comes with the original 2 blade mower deck, snow blower, front blade, dual tires with weights and chains, Planet Jr. Plane-tiller model 0-32, with B&S 4 HP motor, and creeper gear box. It needs a good cleaning, cause I still use it in the yard.

Thanks for your input.

I would think that it has more value right now as a great useable yard machine, as your paint job is getting a little long in the tooth. Most collectors would want to refresh it cosmetically, including undoing your headlight conversion.

As a plus, you do have the stock air filter, hood trim ,DUALS!, and the correct deck, and it runs well.. If i had to guess, and this is a WAG I would think anywhere between $500-1000 for tractor with deck. Nowadays probably at the lower end. I paid $150 for a running O with hood trim, no filter, no deck, with creeper...however it has a snowblower engine mounted backwards, so it has three reverse gears and one forward...

I'm not familiar with the tiller....It is not OEM cub, and would most likely net you a better return sold separately. If it could attach to any lawn tractor you have a lot more folks looking for tillers than are looking for a restored O.

I'm not an expert on the Originals, just a regular cub addict, so what I said is ONLY an opinion. Good luck!

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.
