Mike

You said you just want to cut grass and you’re not doing a restore so how bad is the frame on the 1864? If all you want is a worker I'd just do the bad stuff on the 1864 with a scraper hit it with some rusty metal primer, shoot some yellow on with a rattle can then put the decent sheet metal and plastic on it and go mow the lawn.

I have experience on the older single cylinder Kohler Cubs.

I have enough experience on the wide frame Kohler Twins to know when to ask questions.

Still wondering which way to go here.

I think I'd Sell a few and buy a nice Super from Sam.

Well that's not true. I wouldn't, but you said you didnt want to do any work.. That would be the easiest way to getting a really nice grass cutter.

I would like to sell about 15 of them but nobody wants to give anything for them. I need the garage space.

I guess that's the reason I didn't have a Super Cub 30 years ago. They were too expensive if you could even find one for sale. Not too many of them around here ever show up for sale.

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.
