Default New Cub ower in Jim Thorpe PA

I am the proud owner of a brand new to me International Cub Cadet 105. 1968, serial # is 256641. I just wanted to say hello and introduce my self. My name is Mike. I always wanted a Cub, but had trouble finding one that was affordable. So I picked up a couple of Bolens GTs. These are also awesome machines. But the ones I had all had Tecs in them and I saw that as a weak point (out of business now!). I heard both good/bad about the Tecs, but always heard great things about Kohlers and of course the International Cub name speaks for itself. So finally, I found that deal of a life time on this 105. I got in some hot water with the wife, but I think it will be worth it in the end. So I now have Cub fever. I have attached some pics. More details to come later.

Welcome to our Forum......

Give the other half a ride on that Quality Built 105, and maybe she will change her mind....:biggrin2.gif:

I almost said, "let her drive it" but on second thought, that may not be a good idea

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. R Bedell, I actually found out about this site from you over at MTF. So thank you. I emailed you about a Qa42 snowblower. I found the manuals and saw that it does fit the 105 so I bought it for 100 bucks. If my wife won't ride it, my 2 little boys are gonna love it. :biggrin2.gif:

Mike,
Welcome to the site. You and I have corresponded via e-mail a few times ( I ran into you on MTF). I live over in the Beltzville Lake area. Nice looking 105...and you got a sleeve hitch and 3pt hitch!! Now all you'll need is a plow and we can hit the plow days next spring. If you ever want to meet up and talk/work on tractors, let me know. Jason

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.
