Back in my motorcycle riding days, I almost always won the "Rat Bike" class with the worlds ugliest 1974 Kawasaki KZ 400.

That bike even made some of the Harley guys say " that is the ugliest piece of <deleted> rat bike I ever saw."

Wonder if that is what the PO had in mind? Making up "Rat Cadets"? ? ?

I'd buy it Kieth, heck, the deck is worth that alone.
Gear drive shouldn't be too hard to fix. Shifter cone is probably busted loose from the lever or maybe the end is broke off.

No wonder it sold even with a stuck tranmishion, it's a rare "club cadet". HaHa I love craigslist misspellings, there was a cub cader for sale near me not too long ago.

When the kid welded the "pipes" on the side for derby'n this thing, looks like he got lucky that day. Melted the fuel tank pretty good. Hoping I can salvage it.

So far, this is the stack of guaranteed usable parts (ok, motor too, but it's off to the side). Hope I can salvage some more of this thing. I think I may be able to save the fenders with some careful torch and grinder work.

The 1864 was pretty cruddy Jonathan! Looks like some good usable parts though.

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.
