Picked Up New 1811 Project -NOW RUNNING!
I stumbled on an ad that said couple tractors - need work. A simplicity that runs good but needs a battery, and an 1811 that they said worked great but then wouldn't start. He thought it might be an ignition module, but wasn't real sure. But for $100 (for BOTH of them), couldn't pass them up. Everything is there far as I can tell on the 1811 but the engine shroud (baffle?) on the left side, and the front grill. I'll have to pick those up.
The Kohler has 800 hrs on it. Contemplating just rebuilding it, then not having to worry about it again for a lonnnnnnnng time. Or just see if I can get it running first and see what it needs. She's in really good shape, so I plan on stripping her down and repainting. I put a new battery in yesterday - turn the key and nothing. So some electrical troubleshooting today or tomorrow to get the starter to turn. If I can get her turning over I'll do a compression check to see what kinda shape the engine is in and go from there. As I get deeper into this, I'm sure there will be questions to follow. Here's some pics

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.
