Question What model Cub Cadet is this?

New to the forum here, To make a long story short, my grandfather had past away a few years ago, and he had this International cub cadet tractor. So I bought a house last year and now I thought I could keep this tractor going and begin to use it on my own home beings all it does is sit. It has sat for 3 Years, But I have no idea of the model of this tractor. I'm trying to figure out exactly what model it is. Here are some pictures. Any help would be great

That tractor was made in May of 1975.

Yes, I have a 1450 also. It is one of my favorite Cubs. It is used as a work horse, year round.

Nice looking machine. The guys/girls (?) here will help keep you on the straight and narrow with maintenance and questions to keep it going for years. They have helped me out many times.

Looks like it's in decent shape. Do you have the side panels for it? We will all help you get it going and you'll be hooked. Interesting looking snow plow set up

Welcome to OCC.
The 1450 is what's known as a Quiet Line. The forum has owners an service manuals available for our members. Would be a good idea reading them over to familiarize yourself with the tractor.
Real cool having a "family" tractor sticking around...

You guys are great, thank you for the warm hospitality. Tractor has been garage kept, just hasn't been ran in some time now, and just sitting there. I want to get this guy going strong like my grand father had it going. Tractor does crank and seems like it has good compression, cleaned the carb as well, but It wasn't igniting the fuel, Removed the spark plug, and the internal point of the plug did have unburnt fuel on it. I know I could have trouble shoot, to see exactly what part wasn't giving it spark, but I went ahead and picked up a new ignition wire, New coil, and ordered a new voltage regulator as well. The tractor needed it, the parts looked a little rough. So we will see where that gets me. As for the side panels, i'll have to look at my grandfather's garage and see if he has them in there. The tractor sitting in his garage at this time, I'd like to get it home to my house where I have tools to work on it at. But I just want to see if I can get this thing fired up first.

I've been doing some research and I've seen that this tractor takes a champion H 10 spark plugs, is that right? I've heard autolight is the way to go instead of champion? If it is what type of auto light spark plug would it take? And at what gap should it be set at? Again I appreciate all the help and input. I'm only 29 years old, and just starting with my first riding mower. A little background on myself, I have been doing commercial HVAC service for 8 years. Like to work on my jeep and tinker around. So my new project is the mower

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.
