Go for it. I am restoring my 782 for the 2nd time. I will never give up my Cub Cadet for a plastic tractor.

No plastics allowed here!!

Welcome to OCC! Great choice, I’m in the process of restoring my 149 as well.

Nice!
I hope I can clean the carb and fuel tank and at least get it to start up as-is to see what I'm working with before I start digging into stuff. I already noticed that the plastic fan is missing on mines.

Just reporting back. Finally got the 149 home. The original rear wheels were rotted out. I had to put on another set to get it to roll off the trailer. I'll be starting a thread soon to document my progress.

Rear lift is a big plus though.

Yes, I do. It's in pretty rough shape but I'm up for the challenge. I was thinking about getting the engine running/rebuilt first then going from there. If I should be doing it in a different order, let me know.
