You nail it! He take it like a personal attack but I don't blame him with what I read from his O resto thread he got good reasons to be confused, or is it because he is getting old...LMAO

The first 70 seems to be a true restore,the other is a chitty paint job.wrong muffler,wrong cover on the tranny wrong muffler pipe,painted over everything....even the wire harness.
I would go with the first one.

I did too the first time. Took me a reread to realize you were referring Yosemite Sam's "restore" rant not Sam Mac's cosmetic refresh.

Since I'm here, I'll put my 2 cents in. if you're (op) not going to tackle a restore yourself, I see no reason not to spend the money on a quality restored tractor. Like the others said, take your time and check it out to make sure it's done right.
Good luck!

Bill

You got good eyes but don't forget to mention the painted starter switch!

That's a good example of what Yosemite Sam's describe but I disagree with you for the spray can paint job, I think he use a paint ball gun!

Maybe $1500 is a bit overprice for this one....LMAO

I must be a cheapskate too since I never pay that much for any of those but if your time is limited and it is not a spray can look like new shitty job like Sam just wonderfully describe why not? Your the one who pay for after all.

I mistakenly took OldSkull's comment to be about the O that I'm working on. Sorry Bud.

No arm at all Sam! If I was not so lazy and took the time to write "Yosemite" before the name Sam things may have been more clear for you! I read and post on this forum because I share the same passion as you, I'm here to learn and share not to win the PITA of the year award! LMAO

I wish the OP learn a lot from all the good comments, he can't see the difference between a $1500 POS and a $1900 well done look alike machine!

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.
