Cub 149 Resto-mod
I am going to try out having a build thread on my 149, I am calling it a resto-mod since I am restoring it and modifying it at the same time. It will basically be a restored 149 which I am going to change to red in color, install an older set of narrow front wheels, and running tri ribs up front, and ags in the back.
I have bought this tractor after the first of the year, was looking for a 149, 169, 1450, and 1650....this just happens to be what I wound up with that met my purchase criteria....was wanting a hydrostat with hydrallic lift. I had a cub 102 about 15 years ago that I restored and have missed so I decided now was a good as time as any to jump back in with both feet! Anyhow, here is the beginning of my build thread, I have been buying parts ever since I got the tractor, purchasing things I know that it needed and things I wanted. I will go into that later. Today I began disassembly, attached are a few pics of what it looked like before I started! 001.jpg 002.jpg 003.jpg In the next segment, will show the progress I made.

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.
