I just found this thread, and read it through. I like the way you think. Detroit nor Louisville, never built anything to my specification, because they didn't ask me what I wanted!
Love the way you integrate everything, for ease of service/maintenance. My 149 is begging for some update/mods. Some great information, in your build and documentation. Hope to see the finished project some time.

Hello all. It's been a long time since I've reported on anything, although much has happened, it's just not been Cub related. In the last couple years I've had several surgeries, both eyes "de-cataracted", a hernia repaired, (then failed and just recently "re-repaired), and the worst was tracking down the reason for pain and losing the use of my left arm. That was tracked to my neck, which oddly enough NEVER bothered me, hmmm, anyway some spinal surgery and a little steel plate and properly placed screws, VOILA good as new. Still can't play the "pie-an-OOO" though, dang it. I lost my mom and subsequent estate hassles ensued. I sure hope my cubs don't hurt so much when I "operate" on them.
I may have to consider some sort of sedation for them. Any way, the last time I tried to move the "1273" she had no sparks! I will tow her to the garage from the shed soon and replace all the ignition thingies. My plan is to adapt an implement hanger behind the axle since it is now in front of the pto now. Yeah, I know, I should have cut the frame behind the motor, moved the whole shabang forward and then simply lengthened the drive shaft. Any way, that's a short version of what all of us experience, LIFE. I'm gonna go ahead and TRY to succeed at all I attempt, except for that whole dieing thing, I'm ok with failing at that. Excuse me for being long winded.

Finally getting close to finishing this long drawn out project. I'm changing direction with this as it was originally going to be just a toy, but my wife and I are doing the classic downsizing thing and will soon start construction on a new smaller home. This, as a reminder, is the melding of a123 and a 107, with some obvious additions common to neither. The K301, in a 107 chassis equals a 127, but stretch the nose and add a 123 front end, (just because I prefer it) and you end up with, well, a "1273". The headlight panel is custom, as well as the hand made hydraulic levers. The pump is a ported 1250 mated to the 107 rear. I do have new tail lights, and will get them mounted soon. http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/...psa8gjh4cq.jpg http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/...ps0gnafl9o.jpg This will be put to work in the fall putting the yard in at the aforementioned house.

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.
