149 restofication
I've decided to paint my 149 similar to a 66 series IH full size tractor. My plan is to make it look like it would if IH had painted the Cubs to match their other tractors. It will be IH red with the white stripe on the hood and grill. The front wheels will be red and the rears will have red centers and silver rims. It will have the factory decals but I will cut and place them like they are on a 66 series.
It will be painted like this.  This is painted up like an 86 series.  A 1466.  Here's how it looked before I dismantled it.   I'll try to take plenty of pics along the way.

So far, I have the frame sanded and ready to paint and the rearend is cleaned up and almost ready for paint. I'm making a grill insert similar to the one on the 86 series clone. I'm not sure what diesel is in the 86 clone. Going by the number on the hood it must be an 18 hp 3 cylinder.

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.
