I have a IH Cub Cadet 73 that I've been given rides on by my grandfather when I was in diapers and have drove/cut grass ect. MANY times since.

It has been sitting in a field behind a shed for at least ten years almost forgotten.

My son and his friend decided to try and stert it before it was scrapped.
Well the stubborn son of gun started within 15 mins with ether and gas!
Now it's running good 2 days later.
My problem is the mower deck is practically trashed after almost 40 yrs of cutting grass. Is a new deck even available ?

I shed a few tears when that old girl started and moved.
I'd REALLY like to jump on and cut grass again with it!
LOTS of good memories!
