Thanks for the comments guys. Kind of fun to work on what started this whole Cub thing. My guess is if they had to reproduce the O today we would be looking at $4000.00 to $5000.00. Pretty good design considering we are talking about early 1960's technology. Best part is this will still be going when the current big box store crap has been sent to the scrap yard.

There are more existing O's left from 196X, than "box store" mowers built in 199X.


Nice work.

My scrappy O pulled my 782 (which had a major fuel leak) out of the shed and up the hill with no complaints. It also started without any drama after 4 months of lying fallow over the winter (hey, it's NC...winter is short!).

I'll keep it as long as I'm around they're darned fine machines. Sam, yours is going to a trailer queen if you're not careful!

Sam do you have a parts list of what you're replacing? I can get numbers just curious of what's getting pitched. My deck is in need and after I'm done with the tractor resto I'm on to the deck. Looks like I got some welding to do at the hangers. Did yours have cracks too? How are you're cogged pulleys? The teeth on mine are pretty worn.

This shell didn't need much in the way of welding. I have some left over parts that may be of some use to you, I'll get some pics of what I have.

Pretty much done. Not sure I can save the wheels.

Alvy I sent you a PM. Miller probably has better stuff. I'll let you decide.

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.
