A great big to everybody for the nice comments. It was worth all the time, blood, sweat, tears and words that went into this. Also, thanks to "Only Cub Cadets" and all the people who supply soooooo much information (yes, I also ), which makes it almost impossible to fail. I'm sure I'll get years of service from this Cub. Now it will be on to save another one, the Cub Cadet 105.

I think it looks great too. 125s are one of my favorites.

Do you have the center cap for the steering wheel? If not, I have one off a 125.

Very nice work. But I have to ask , did you put the front axle on backwards on purpose or by accident? Great photos also. I love the rear lights in place of the reflectors. The headlights are very cool , how is the light pattern mounted that way?

Great 125! You did a wonderful job on the restoration! Where did you find the seat?
Regards,
Chris

Thank you. Your right, the front axle is backwards (oops ), I'll change it tomorrow. Thanks for pointing that out. The light pattern isn't too bad, just a little narrower than if mounted horizontal. Depends on how you point them. They'll be just fine to plow snow. You also have to point them down a bit so it don't throw the beam out to far. I put the rear lights on for safety (can make them flash), when I run up and down the street to do some neighbors driveways at night.

Thanks Chris. The seat was on the 105 I have to restore. I'll have to find a seat for that one. The seat that was on the 125 is scrap .

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.
