Default 169 serial number

Bought a 169 last year. Was looking at the serial number. I think this baby was made around the last of the run of production. I have failed at finding how to read the rest of the number 205 is garden tractor? and 0048 i can not find i did find 0038 is a 107 not sure on what the U is or meaning, 523921 is September or early October. I'm think think that's what i read. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping 0048 is a 169. Thank you in advance!

Default Thanks

Thank you bill682. I'am very relieved it is a 169.
Here are a few pictures.
Sadly it does not have the original 16 hp engine.
Someone put bolts in where the pins go for the drive shaft. The starter pulley is unknown. It has the hydro lurch.
I picked this up by Lansing Michigan. The gentleman was asking 350.00 I drove about 100 miles and we settled on a price of 300.00. Picked up my second cab off Facebook market place. Lucky for me it was 20 mins from my home. Settled on a price of 225.00, with a well used but still functioning qa42 blower. Just put the cab on a few days ago. Going to work out all the bugs.

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.
