New member from Pensacola
Hello All,
So here I am a new member of your forum.
Grew up in southwestern Michigan and lived in Canada a couple of years before my current local.
I have 40+ years of grass mowing experience while my butt was in a Cub Cadet everytime.
But only three of them so far.
That is me in the back and my sister and brother, most likely 1968 or 1969.
Dad bought it with deck and snow thrower. I did the mowing and he did the throwing. The only other implements were a homemade underbelly scraper blade for the gravel driveway. And a homemade grapevine trimmings collector pole-on-rope thingy.
When I moved into my own place I bought a 127 with a 48" deck and the stock extra wide tires in front and back. That one ended up going with me to Canada along with a snow thrower. That one stayed in Canada. Then I moved to Pensacola, I ended up buying another 127 w/42" deck off ebay out of WV.
I was able to drive it inside a first generation Dodge minivan with the deck on when I retrieved it twelve years ago.
My winter project for this year is to restore it before mowing season starts again in April.
The picture is of the first one Dad bought for the newly constructed homestead in I think 1969. That is me in the back and my sister and brother.
Now-a-days you can not see anything but towering white pine trees that Dad and I planted behind that flag pole back in 1970 or so.
