With that serial number, she's an early one. They started at 665001. I wouldn't loose too much sleep with the Series I. Just check the oil and keep it full. If she lets go, she lets go. I've seen a lot of Series II that have thrown rods as well.

Seems as though I'm having a hard time locating the engine shroud I need which leads me to wonder; am I going to be ok running it without that shroud on? I want to try her out as a mower once before snow falls (at the rate my grass is growing, I'll only get one more mow in this year :-/), what do you guys think?

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.
