Going to pick this up when the weather warms up. It is a long road trip, and the fellow that has them says he is in no hurry. 1st is a recoil Original that is 75% correct. It currently has a K181 in it, but he has the original 161 that was in it. He also has the original Fairbanks and Morse pull start to go back in it. I have a completely rebuilt 161 sitting in the garage. I don't know what year it is, but couldn't I just take the coil and magneto out of the 181 and switch it to the rebuilt 161?
2nd one is a 1961 plain jane Original, but is in good shape. Here are a couple pics of the early one.

Lol, And I got the neighbors with the dual wheels. That will make 5 total. I will probably sell 1 or 2, if I can make myself do it. Here is one more pic.

That looks nice, not sure what is going on with the recoil, hopefully the other is usable.
Prolly broke the recoil spring.
So when you picking them up?

IMO I'd go get it sooner rather than later so he doesn't change his mind.

I've heard this before from sellers and then all of a sudden they won't take your calls, emails, etc and POOF it's gone.
If you want them, make it happen.

He told me there's nothing wrong with the original one. He said he just liked the other one better. It attaches to the dash tower and makes it easier to pull? I am going in March. It's a 12 hour drive, but I am gonna stop and visit family while I'm there.

He gave me his word and that's good enough for me. He said they have been just sitting in the barn taking up space. I offered to pay him now, but he said they weren't going anywhere, I had first refusal. And I won't refuse the deal he gave me. He also has the decks, spare parts and a push blade for a O.

Believe me, I felt that way until I talked to him. I was ready to jump in the truck and leave. But I still need to know if the mag. and coil will fit in the new engine I have? I can't think of a reason it wouldn't?

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.
