Thanks for the add. I have a couple garden tractors but this is my first Cub. This is a 1864 and I'm impressed with the power steering and hydraulic 3pt in a compact package.

Meter shows 110 hours but that can't be right based on the condition of the machine. It had been abandoned for years in a barn, so it should have looked better if the hours were correct.

So far I've cleaned out a bunch of mouse nests, put tubes in the front tires, checked compression and spark in the engine, and ran it briefly on starting fluid. So far so good.

Next up is that leak in the rear.... And Googling that problem is how I ended up here. Will continue reading and share when I've made progress (or get stuck).

Thanks for the warm welcome. Cubs are fairly rare around here unless you count the mowers sold at HD and Lowe's. Lots more Sears/Craftsman machines but still not as many as in other parts of the country.

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.
