Default 100's coming along

Well my barn find is looking some better. Rebuilt the carb. Matt G. told me how to loosen up a stuck clutch, two new cables and it runs and drives like a new tractor that has a few hours on it! I did find out the hood was home made that's why it don't look right, and had no ornament on it.
I put the after market steering wheel on because the original was so broken up, cracked all around.
Still don't know what the seat if from, but it's ok for now. I did a little painting to clean it up a bit, along with making a battery holder and fuel line filter and shut off valve. (enough hose clamps)
To say I'm really getting into these older tractors would be an understatement, I'm lovin' every bit of it!

Nice batt. bracket! These IHCCs rock! Not bad homemade hood! Lots of clamps but works and gets the job done. Nice IHCC 100!

Thanks for the kind words. I started working on the late 80's lawn tractors which are still alot of fun to do. But then these two GT's came along and, well I guess I got bitten by the CUB BUGand it's been down hill from there.
Last night started to work on a hand clutch for the 100, so I can get some seat time on it. Getting tired of just starting it and pushing it around the shop, it's time to enjoy it! For what it is, a great machine

If you make a hand clutch, add a stronger clutch return spring so you that your longer hand clutch lever can't bounce around and make the clutch slip and glaze the friction disc.

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.
