Default My first Super and more
I picked this up several weeks ago but haven't had time to post it... so here goes.

I found this nice one owner 1782 near Columbia SC on Craigslist. It's the first Super I've seen in the southeast so I had to grab it! You guys seem to hoard them all up north! The guy also just so happened to have a nice 128 sitting in the corner. It followed the 1782 out of the garage like a lost puppy so I just couldn't leave it there! Yellow fever got me again! The guy bought them both new!

On the way home I happened to think that this is my first Super, my first CCC built machine, my first Diesel and my first Cyclops all in one!

The 1782 runs great and was well maintained but does have a few issues. The 60" Haban has been with it since new. It spent it's early years mowing a large 15 to 20 acre recreation field in PA before moving with its owner to SC about 15 years ago.

I plan to go through it over the next several months, service it, repair some issues, give it some SamMac upgrades and then use it to mow about 3 acres.

Im gonna need a lot of help from you guys with tips and advice. Im not new to the Cub Cadet scene but I sure don't know much about a CCC Super!

Good looking machines. That is also a nice Cub hauler you have there. What kind of rollback have you got.

Thanks for the nice comments and encouragement guys! I can't wait to get into the Smoker and see what she needs to get back on top of her game..

CubDieselFan,
My hauler is a 96 Ford F450 Superduty with a 19 x 8 steel Dual Tech Bed. I like the fact that it has an IH 7.3 Smoker in it! We use it daily in our Jeep parts and repair business.... but it does come in handy to haul cubs... I wasn't going to take it on this trip but the overall width of the Haban wouldn't go between the rails on my trailer. Im glad I did drive it after finding the "bonus" 128!

Thanks Oak... took me a long time to find one close enough to go get. Apparently they didn't sell many supers down this way. I really didn't want a Cyclops...but hey they are growing on me!

Man im sorry.. I took a day off work on a Tuesday to go get it cause I knew somebody was gonna snatch it up. I had been trying to get ahold of him for about a week and a half before he finally replied back. He did say that someone was coming that Thursday to look.... that may have been you...
After getting it home and looking closer it does have more issues than I originally thought...I'm gonna play with it a while but may sell it later... especially if I find a '89 or older super...I'll keep you in mind!
Thanks

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.
