Default A Diffrent Tractor
I am thinking of buying this little thing just because it's so cute. It is a Homelite mower with a 5hp engine. Only 100.00? What do you guys think?

What year were they made? Does it run? If you want it get it.

I'm a big fan of the oddball mowers. Anybody can own a Cadet, Wheelhorse, Deere, Bolens, Sears, etc., but those oddballs are a lot harder to find in decent shape as well as find info and spare parts on. I've seen a few different ones that looked in reasonable shape come up on CL in the last couple years, would love to have bought them but honestly do not have the time or space. The worst part I see about the oddballs, is you can easily sink more money into it than they would sell for to a collector.
Dad worked on one similar to the one you are looking at about 20 years ago, pretty certain it was a Homelite painted blue and white. Seems you just pulled a couple pins and the entire body lifted off the frame for servicing.

Cute little sucker! Be fun to get it running and freshen the paint a little. It won't take much room in the shop!

Says they were made in the 60's. It looks like it's all there? Also has a Lauson engine. I have never heard of one of these? I am going to buy it and play with it. It's only a 100.00 and I think it would be fun to restore the little weirdo?

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.
