opinions on a possible sears buy..
so since my 1650 doesn't need anything...im looking for an "inexpensive" resto project ...a friend has a 69 sears suburban 12 (don't think its a super), but it is blue w hubcaps)...he has a replacement 10hp engine for it as the 12 was taken out after blowing up...rusty, but all seems to be there...no attachments other than the 3 point system out back....he wants $60 for the parts he recently bought for it....
don't know anything about the old ss tractors... should I stray from the IH fold a little?

It's hard to get burned on a $60 investment and the Suburban's are quite popular. A guy at work repowered one with one of the HF motors on the cheap and he loves it.
There's a Simpie sitting down the road from me that the owners have been mowing around for a year or better... I'm having the same thoughts as you, but I'd like to turn some cash on it.

Had a couple and loved em both. They are solid a a good tractor for belt drive. Only problem could be with a Tecumpseh engine. The ignition can be a real bear if it goes, they are very hard to replace. I sold my last one after stripping almost any good parts for $35. Id jump on one for $60.

yea the tecumseh engines on those tractors were JUNK. if your lucky enough to find one with the briggs and stratton monsters then itd be worth getting. or even the big old Onans even though im not a fan of those either. too bad they didn't have Kohlers in them. they would be a beast of a tractor
$60 aint a bad price. those sears tractors are quite collectable. attachments for them are EVERYWHERE

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.
