Default Model 100?

First off CURSE YOU ALL!!!

The tractors are starting to multiply in the yard despite my best efforts to keep them at bay.
I was out working on the 147 when a guy stopped in the driveway and said he spotted the 147 from the road and wanted to get a better look. Then he told me he had an old cub in his yard that was his grandpa's and wanted to know if I'd be interested in it since I obviously could fix up old tractors. So I hopped in his truck and went to take a look. Turns out he lives like 2 minutes from me. So we get there and it appears to be a Model 100. Shes rough and has been sitting for about 10 years but he said if I was interested he'd load it and drop it off for free. That's my favorite price so of course I couldn't say no and now the fleet grows :/
But I have a neat tractor and a new buddy/neighbor so thats pretty cool.
The gear lever seems to be jammed and it's in a gear (or maybe 2 gears as I have read a little and that seems to be fairly common on these) So I guess it's going to require a little digging. I got it to crank very weakly a couple of times on a fresh battery and then it quit and only clicks.

What do y'all think... Model 100? Worth saving? Too rough?

YUP, it looks like a 100. Good catch.

A worthwhile score. Free is always a good price and a set of fenders to boot. After sitting in the elements for 10yrs the trans is probably full of water and rusted hence shifter wont move. Clean up all the electrical connections and give it a tune up and I bet it fires right up. I've gotten them in worse shape then that. Good luck

Good price for a desireable model with the hard to find fenders definitely worth saving

Can't beat the price and with a new friend. Someone really molested that front end though to fit that muffler--YIKES!! As already mentioned, clean up the connections and with a new battery and clean points, it should fire up. May want to take the S/G off and open it up in case it is full of water, before you try starting it up again. It will be a fun project to work on. Just be sure to buy your new friend dinner sometime and show it to him once you get it going!

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.
