That's cool. Does look to be a Cub Cadet.

Minneapolis Moline and Oliver had garden tractors. I know a guy who is an avid Oliver guy who has all the garden tractors. I asked him if they ever sold a GT under the Cockshutt name. I don't recall the name exactly, but Cockshutt dealers did sell a GT under a different name. He has one, but they are extremely rare. His is one of only a few known to exist. He got lucky on it. Wish I'd taken a pic of it as he had it at our local small egine show along with all his Olivers.

Might have been something diff in the US I s’pose but in Canada, Cockshutt, White, and Minnie Moline farm tractors were all sold together at the same dealerships. The Jacobsen built GTs were avail in White and MM paint schemes, and in the US they also had the Oliver paint. There was minor diffs in the hood and grill but all were basically the same tractors, and also avail in Ford blue(I have two of those).

Because my Pop ran a Cockshutt service center Ive researched the heII out of these in hopes of finding a official Cockshutt model but there never was one, Ive seen a few examples where owners have created their own versions and they look very good.... like to do one myself someday

I like how the seat is in proportion, may not be the most comfortable though.

Yeah, that would be a one-cheek seat for about 1/3 the population in my state.


I do like the look of that tractor though. Well done.

I think you are being generous on one cheek and i believe the latest census is more than the 1/3 of the state. Ditto on the tractor.

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.
