My Dad Passed
Guys, I've had a tough day, I've only been a part of the forum for a few years, but I wanted to pass along that my Dad passed away very early this morning, 6/28. He was a lifelong IH guy, growing up on a small farm, and then working as a mechanic at a local IH dealer for 12 years. After that he worked on heavy equipment (also mainly IH) for the remainder of his career. He got me started on Cubs when I was 8......he bought a 1650 used, with a deck, tiller and thrower, to replace his tired 100.
Anyway I just needed to get this out. I really enjoy this board, and I have his 1650 in my possession. I had been going back in forth in my mind about restoring it, but now I really think I need to. If you guys could keep up the kind words, advice, and support, so I can finish this up in his memory, I'd appreciate it. Thanks for everything guys. Brian

Very sorry for your loss, I can't imagine but see it coming.
Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, it's only time that makes it bearable. Think there is a Cub re-build in your future, what happened to the 100... Vic

We still have the 100. Its been outside for years, but the engine was kept inside. It probably could be rebuilt. Dad bought it used while he was working at the IH dealer, and ran it for years. It broke down (and had a very minor engine fire in the very early 80s) so Dad bought the 1650, that we ran until at least 2002. It probably should get redone too, but it was the 1650 that I grew up on, and he was really proud of.

So sorry for your loss Brian.
I lost my father two years ago July 27th. Worst day of my life. I posted here on OCC from the day he was diagnosed with cancer my feelings, and what he was going through, as well as myself. Amazing amount of support from members, I never met, and few that I'd talk to. From that day on, the fine folks of OCC, became more than just "forum members", they became a family of sort. We are here for you, in public forum, PM, or emails. If you're the type that likes to express your feelings, or need help expressing your feelings, let us know, we'll do our best to comfort you. Out of all the good members we have, some have been through, what you are now experiencing. So just know this, we are here for you...

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.
