Looks great! My 147 had a new wiring harness on it when I got it.

You have a really nice tractor on your hands. My dad's 1st tractor was a 106 and I have searched high and low to find it. The condition of that 106 is a lot better than what most of us find them in. The hole in the seat is not that big of an issue, the carb rebuild kit is $12 and a new wiring harness is somewhere between $60-$80 (guess) http://www.ebay.com/itm/Cub-Cadet-72...IAAOxy~g5RvHSr and a new plug wire, maybe $10 or less. So for around $100 you would have a very nice, solid garden tractor. Bet you cannot go to the store and find one for $100, let alone one as solid as that one!! If you and your son worked on it, then it might be something he wished you would have kept years from now......as I wish I was able to locate my dad's 106. Just something to consider!!!

That's a good idea. I should at least rebuild the carb, then consider a new wiring harness. It would be nice to get it running again.

One of our members build great/super factory looking wire-ring harnesses. Mike Lamar. All ends are labeled, so it makes for an easy install.

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.
