Sunday I went and picked up the two plows and reel mowers. I’m planning on getting another load of attachments this weekend. There will be an update coming on the tractor soon too. I just have a few more small things to do then it will be ready to try starting it.

I got the last of the attachments home. 2 spreaders and the disc harrow. He also had this quad and plow in the barn, and said I could take them too. I’ll probably sell them.

I got it running over the weekend! I have been trying to figure out for almost 3 weeks why it had no spark, even with new points, condenser, distributor cap and rotor, spark plugs and wires. Not sure exactly what I did to fix it, but now it has good spark and started right up when I put gas in. It doesn’t smoke too bad, oil pressure seems good. Other than loose steering, it drives great. I took it up and down the dirt road a few times. I got two short videos of it running and driving. https://youtu.be/wT6IKZ-8NVg and https://youtu.be/ddIzdekofiQ

Great job, that thing sounds good to me. I had a 49 Cub years ago and they are pretty cool little tractors.

Those are some retro rear tires. Nice score with the attachments.

They were nice little truck garden tractors.
but badly lacked power.
Early ones were less than 10 hp, the later ones produced almost 15 H.P.
But they were built with the mindset to replace the horse/mule, and it did.

Thanks. I have always wanted one. Do you have any pictures of yours?

Thanks. Someone on another forum mentioned the tires looked like they are from a manure spreader. I got one good Firestone ag with it, now I just have to find one to match it.

I think this one is 9 hp. That should be enough for anything I’m going to use it for. I really don’t even need a tractor this size, just wanted one.

You'd be surprised what a Farmall Cub can do. No different than a 12hp CC pushing snow/tilling/mowing.

I went to New Jersey and picked up a grader blade and tire chains yesterday. This blade can be mounted on the front for snow, or in the center for gravel. I got it mounted on the front, but it was too dark to go out and try it. Hopefully we get some snow now so I can try plowing with it. If not, I’ll change it to mid mount and use it to fix the driveway in the spring.

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.
