Got the 1000, paid $300 which included $50 for delivery from 50 miles away. So, not bad--$250 for the tractor.

Missing the air cleaner, and muffler shroud sheet metal. It has a different PTO clutch on it compared to my other QL tractors. Also, the oil fill tube doesn't go straight down into the block, it's attached to the side of the block. That's different than any of my other K series engines, so this is probably not the original engine. Disc brakes were disconnected (but there) , no shift knob, and the manual lift is stuck--the button won't go down. The rust on the hood goes pretty deep, but not through, so with a little luck, it'll be OK. The brake/clutch safety switch looks like it's been bypassed (no spring to actuate the switch). The PTO electrical switch seems to be stuck. All in all, in OK shape, but not a "barn find."

On the other hand, it's a WF gear drive!!

I'm planning on rebuilding this 1000, but won't get into it in earnest for a few weeks. Just stocking up on some parts. First purchase.

Very nice find SDD, I'm currently gathering missing parts and slowly fixing up a roached out 800 but with some decent options. Looks like we are in the same boat and I'm really digging the different aspects of the gear drive q/l's. I'll be watching this close.
P.S. I'm thinking After looking at your pictures I might want to try to use a k241 q/l muffler like yours since mine is MIA and rediculous to find/buy. Hmmmm

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.
