There is a hole in my heart and your 125 makes it feel better.

Nice job on the paint.

Haha, that was the first thing I noticed on your pics. You have a gorgeous machine. 125s are easily my second favorite cub behind the 147. I love how IH went with the blue dash, something I wish my 147 had. I also think 125s look best with the wider front wheels/tires exactly like yours has.

As for the hood guard; I think a cable/rope shortened on the inside of the hood so it can't open too far to chip paint is a better looking option.

Thanks everybody! it was a fun project, I only wish I could have worked on it more regularly! I started in April, and probably averaged about 20 minutes a week of actual work. I would bring the baby monitor out to the shop so I would know when I was back "on duty."

Alvy, the lights are all operational, the large lights on the back are linked into the stock tail light circuit, plus they have a flasher that will blink them for when I'm plowing/blowing or just working near the road. when I bought it it had all the stock wiring for lights including the NF light switch under the dash, but all of the lights were missing. I decided to put them all back and add a few (including those markers on the grille casting to fill in the PO holes.) glad you all like the end result!

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.
