Bought a 149 today
From a fellow forum member. 8 hours of driving in fog, rain and mountains. I can't wait to start making her pretty with new white paint and decals.
Here she is next to my 1966 Sears suburban 12

Congratulations on the 149! I agree, she don't look bad as is. If you do repaint it I woukd get some pics and have the dealer decal reproduced. Wish mine had them.

Looks nice!! Congrats!!
 I would leave like it is until it earns it's keep. Maybe after too. They are only original once! Where are you in Nova? I'm between Manassas and Warrenton.

Thanks everyone! I do plan to keep it pretty original. Dealer sticker will stay on it too. I'm just going to repaint the grill/headlight surround, the hood and put new deals on it. I'm happy with the yellow, it's in good shape.
Next up is to swap over the tri-ribs from the sears over to the cub and I have a new pair of 12x8.5 tru-powers for the back. The search is on for rear wheel weights. Tim- I ordered a mower drive belt, hydro lift handle, and the replacement hydro release spring-thing for the lever. Now the hunt is on for some new tail lights- both lenses are actually broken and I'm not a stickler for OEM- heck some LED trailer lights that are the same size would be fine. As long as they look close and I don't get run over pushing snow out in the street. I'll keep this thread updated with my progress.

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.
