Older Cub 1050
I stumbled upon a 1050 for sale for a good price. Tractor only, no deck or other attachments. The seller says it runs great with no problems. My boy has been wanting a tractor to start pulling with. Not sure if this is a good base to start with or what. Is there anything on these that I should pay close attention to before purchasing?

You may want to ask your question in the puller section.

I would say a 1050 is more of a collector's item than a puller. I have seen several in the last few years that the transmission was bad.

Thanks for the replies! Aside from the weak trans gear, would it be a good buy for $150? I haven't heard it run yet but am told everything is in good working order. Was thinking about getting it for my boy and if nothing else I could find a deck for it and let him use it to mow. He's been wanting his own tractor for awhile now and even if it wasn't a competitive puller, he could still take it to the local pull once a year just for the experience. And I think it could be a good piece of equipment for him to learn how to maintain and take care of. By the way he just turned 10, so he wants to do anything and everything involving driving and operating any kind of powered machine. I never use my 1772 for mowing until this year he talked me into sliding the deck underneath it so he could use it. Now I can't get him off of it!!!

For $150 I doubt you could go wrong, good luck with the project.

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.
