Finally! The 1650/782D restoration
About 5 years ago my dad and I took apart the 1650 to fix a rear end leak. Well (as it happens to many cub cadet owners)
 it turned into a full restoration. The only problem was being farmers there are many other projects to work on, so it got pushed to the corner of the shop and there it sat. Since then we got the 782D and because of the Red Power Roundup 2012 in Du Quoin IL (about a half hour from home) next summer we were finally given the excuse to repaint and rebuild both of them. So we started preparing the 1650 on Tuesday. We washed it and now it is almost ready for paint.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
Duke, I decided to put them together because the only thing we are doing with the diesel is repainting it. Dan, I'm south west of Mt. Vernon by about 20 minutes.

We made some good progress today. We washed the 782D and the 1650's engine. Then I painted the 1650's engine with a can of high temp engine paint. We then sanded the 1650 and I primed all the yellow parts of the tractor and the column. We also took all the old decals off. (I figured out the quickest way to remove the decals is to take a propane torch and heat the underside of the metal under the decal, and then peal it off. Finally dad painted the column and the wheels (because I am not that skilled yet
).

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.
