Jeff,
My "little Jumbo" has that same fold away handle.
I wonder about that, as they were made not far from Lansing, in Saginaw area.

Cool engine.
I'm a little disappointed, when I read the title of this thread I thought you got a Tim.

thanks, they did a nice job rigging the engine when they lifted it off the trailer today with a 8000 lb lift forktruck. Paul set it down and put the forks under the original skids to bring it in the building.




Once we set it in place, I removed the head ( I knew it needed a head gasket ) and then oiled and greased it up. I pulled the connecting rod cap to make sure the babbitt bearings were in good shape. The bore looks great and everything moves easily.



I pulled the water jacket to clean that. I used water to remove the bird droppings and the 111 year old paint still looks great. Here's where it sits at the back wall of the Willock Building at Rough and Tumble.

Great find Jeff! Congratulations. Several hobbies ago I was into the hit and miss engines. I had a few small ones but none as nice as yours.

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.
