Nice find on the deck same. It will look good on the O.


I'm about 10 miles from Awesome Bill's shop in Dawsonville (his old original shop) and about 8 miles from his mansion. Now I find myself cheering for Chase.

Not me. I was not overly impressed with the resto job. End plate had been replaced and the welding looked like bird poop. The spindles seemed very tight, it was painted the wrong colors, the covers were painted black and it looked like it was painted with a brush. Up side, the pulleys looked like new and from what I could see it looked like it has new bearings in it.

I disassembled the deck yesterday. Now I need to sand blast it, fill the rust pits (luckily it's not rotted through) paint it and transfer my rebuilt spindles and drive to this shell. Not sure what I'll do with the remains. Pretty sure I could make a decent worker out of the leftover parts.

Latest on the "O deck" sandblasted it and I have been doing patch up work on it for a couple days. Replaced some of the runners and doing some bondo work on the rust pits in the shell. It's coming along nicely. Sorry no pics at the moment. Just a FYI I ordered a case of Valspar IH White from Lowes today. I had some from TSC before they started selling that Majic crap that I used on the rest of my O so I wanted to match the rest of the white when I paint the deck.

Got the shell painted today. Now I need to strip the other parts off the other deck and put them on this shell.

now that the weather is warming up I got back to this project. Stripped the other deck, cleaned and painted some parts and started put it together. When it's done it will be the combined parts from 3 decks to make one decent deck. Ran out of yellow paint so off to the parts store tomorrow.

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.
