Unless you are in the parts business, OR you are buying high dollar equipment really cheap that has issues, it is very difficult to "come out" on Cub Cadets.

And anyone who is serious about our hobby, is not going to appreciate a rattle can restoration, especially on something like a model 73.

If this was a money making deal, I'd have a barn full of restored antique Cub Cadets with ALL of the really hard to find attachments, PLUS another barn full of supers and smokers along with a pocketful of money. Then again... I'm not Lew.
Mark,
Well said and I concur.......

After doing most of the things these guys have mentioned. Like bringing home junk Cubs and spending months and tons of money on them! Also have bought several and just got them going for family to mow with. They are awesome tractors unless they need a lot of work, then they just need a lot of work
Go find the Low Boy you want and put your money and time into that big boy! You will be very VERY happy when your done!
( I have a 73 that needs engine rebuild. That will be about $500 without any thing else).
Regards,
Chris

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.
