Looking good there Todd. Seems a little higher up front or is that a optical dillusion?

No "delusion" there Lew, it is higher up front.
Going to feel like riding in an easy chair.

I'm sure that you have driven tricycle front's before, so no news to you..... but they do tend to be a little less "stable". No FEL's for them.

So..... whatcha gonna do with it? No PTO work, obviously... Looks like a rear attachment machine. You need one of those wheel hay rakes for yards. That'd be a cool job. Then make you a lawn sweeper that looks like a round baler, like the one on here. Then you can "rake" and "bale". LOL!

No oil pan yet?

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.
