Default Identification help?

I'm going to meet the old guy who owns this Cub this coming Sunday. From what I can tell it is not a model 71.. so I believe he's meaning the year 1971. There are no stickers that can be seen in the pic but Im confident it's a 100's something. The oblong gas tank is throwing me off a bit though.

Any help from you gurus?

looks to me like its a 1250....it a quiet line judging by the grill, and dash setup. its not a 1450 or 1650 judging by the manual lift lever....so my guess is a hacked up 1250 cub cadet.

I agree with Shaner, probably what is left of a 1250, with the hard to find low profile plywood tunnel cover

Thanks! What makes you say hacked up? If it is a 1250 then all I really notice is missing side panels.

It took me a minutes to figure out where the tunnel cover was. It just looked dirty to me, and not wood grain. Yuk I hope it's not plywood.

Does it look like the generator is backwards to anyone else or is it just me?

Correct muffler/ shrouds are gone, PTO looks to be gone, side panels ,tunnel cover and gas tank heat shield are gone, wrong gas tank. That's just what I see, could still have the typical QL issues like worn out motor mounts and oil pan. If you get it really cheap it's still worth having, but it needs a lot of work.

Edit: Seeing the pic you just posted it has the wrong engine altogether, it should a ring gear starter. The frame has been cut to fit it in there, looks like a hack job.

Hmmm.. the guy is asking $225. I figured I could talk down to $200 even. But if it's a 1250 and if it's really missing all that then yeah I don;t want to have to put in another couple hundred.

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.
