more to come with project:WOODY

I am lucky to have 4 O's, one is in pieces-but just needs an engine to be complete and one is a total donor. The other two are pictured below, both with 3 pt hitches and lights, but I haven't gotten around to installing the lights yet or the 3 pt. hitch on the the other one. The cubs that are diagonal of each other are the same cubs. That is, the one with slicks (PO mod) was the original condition of the one with the square seat with rear ags after some wrenching.

Cub Cadet 123

I've owned about 20 CCO's but only retained this one. Repainted 5 of them, full restorations on 3. Here's my 61 CCO #950. Bought it in about every possible piece it could be in but all correct. Slowly found all the parts and restored it as I put it together. Made new steel plates for the deck and ground the rusted ones out. Original pull start model. All new bearings and seals. Didn't originally come with fenders. Runs and cuts real nice now but sits around mostly. I have the non-trip blade but don't bolt it up. Never made an effort to put any more options on it despite having them all at one point excpet hitch and fenders. I have a set of headlights I may put on it even though the pull starts don't use lights. Can't find current pic with fenders.

Here is the pic of the one PaulS was talking about.

We are just getting started on PTE's "O" so more pics of the rebuild to come. :beerchug:

This is mine built in March 61'. First picture is the day I bought it and the second picture is it on the cover of Cadet Connection after I did a little work to it :biggrin2:.

Sweet!

You know, these are cool little tractors but what REALLY makes them interesting are the stories that go with them! Keep 'em coming.

CC123,
There was an ad on Craig's list where a guy was searching to buy a cub with slicks. Not too sure that there were many with THAT option. He had a picture of it doing a wheelie. If I can find it, I'll post a link. Not sure of the history but, could it be? :Detective1:
