Default Cub Cadet Hydrostatic 127 Value

Hi all,

I have a Cub Cadet Hydrostatic 127 that I'm looking to sell. It was last ran and used to mow a lawn about two years ago. It's not running at the moment, but I think all it needs is a new battery. The front tires are also a little rough and could probably be replaced.

Any idea what it would be worth in this condition and where I'd even go about selling it? Below is a photo (it's in the garage and surrounded by stuff, so sorry about that).

Well, put a battery in it and get it running,
Worth more that way than not running.
Make it a turn key sale

Thanks for the feedback. Can you give me an idea of what the difference would be between running and not? I just want it out of my garage, and am willing to let it go for cheap as-is.

Well, that's kind of what I was hoping to find out from here. I have no idea what it might be valued at, in its current condition, or running. Google says anywhere from $300 - $1500, but that's the AI summary. I'm near Dayton.

I would balk at 300 unless it was a turnkey deal.
What with a run of some 25,400+ units built, it's not like they are rare

I would say $100-200 not running, $300-500 if you get it running. After 2 years, I would guess the carburetor probably needs to be cleaned too unless you ran it out of gas before you parked it. Not hard to do, that tractor could probably be running with a battery and about an hour or so of work.

Thanks - I do believe I ran it out of gas. I usually do with my other lawn equipment. I guess I'll have to see if I can't find a cheap battery to throw in it.

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.
