Hello from Minneapolis, MN
Howdy,
My name is John, and this past week I purchased a 1969 Cub Cadet 107 (Craigslist). It runs, and came with a 42" mower deck that needs a little welding as well as some ATV wheels/tires. Since I bought it, I have cleaned it up, purchased a 42" push blade, and some wheels/tires that are closer to stock. The subframe for the blade is not a quick-attach, possible homemade. I got it fit on my tractor, but I lose some travel of the lift arm and I had to make a rod to mount it to some other holes in the frame. It was also missing a couple of parts as you will note in the picture below, the lift arm bracket and lift rod. Both should be pretty easy to fabricate myself to get me going for this winter, but I am still on the lookout for original parts. Wheel weights would be a nice compliment to the blade as well. I am not sure the wheels are stock, the valve stems are on the inside of the rim when mounted (won't fit the other way). It's not difficult to reach them and they hold air, so for $20 I am happy. I still need to do the routine maintenance things for peace of mind (oil, Hy-tran, spark plug, air filter, grease points), but otherwise I think am pretty much set for winter work! I do plan to restore / rejuvenate the plow, mower deck, and of course tractor as well as build a 5 gallon bucket mount for the rear sleeve hitch to lift and haul buckets of rocks/tools/sand/salt around as needed.

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.
