Thanks for the tip on the seals Alvy

Olds the fenders are in great condition just the standard broken base where the lift rod would come through it. Mr. Miller can fix that. One broken reflector.

It was in pretty good condition to start with but it had some light rust under the battery area and I wanted to get it before it started to pit the steel. Overall I'm very happy with it's condition. It has been well taken care of.

Sam, that's one of the best looking un-restored Os I've seen. Looking forward to following your repairs.

It looks like it's been redone at least once before. Things that I expected to be worn are nice and tight. Worst part was the deck. I'm looking for a nice deck shell for it. I rebuilt the deck last fall but the shell has patches on the patches and plenty of Bondo. Figure when I find a good shell I'll just pull the spindles and other parts off it and swap them over. Once it done I'm planning on trying a dry cell battery in it, I'm tired of the damage that acid does to these things. Used to have one in my race car. Here is some info on them.

During the winter I'd put it in my hard to start 1210, it cranked it over better than any battery I've ever used.

I also like the size of these batteries. From what I can see in the pictures they seem a little smaller. It's not like I plan to put a set of golf clubs under the seat or under the hood but a little extra room here and there is always nice

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.
