A wide frame hydro and a narrow frame gear drive don’t share a ton of parts aside from engine stuff (and a 301 in that tractor is a bit different than the 241 in your 72), but there are some I suppose.

Buy it and get her going again!

Will it help if we say you could reuse wheels and tires? ;-)

Haha sounds like you guys are really twisting my arm lol. Got me convinced but now time to convince the wife.....

Good news the seller still has it. Sounds like I’ll still have to pay the 125 but heck if I can get her running that’d be pretty nice.

Question tho, worst case if the motor seems in good shape and I can salvage just that, would a 12hp fit in a 72? I’m not willing to modify my 72 tho, love that little rig. And the 7hp is nice powerful little motor.

I'd try to get it for less as well. The radiator is gone.

That and the 44a deck looks pretty trashed.

You're basically buying a non-running half-tractor with no usable attachments.

Still worth it in parts, and it probably wouldn't take a ton to get it running and driving, but still...

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.
