I did something very similar with my 122/126 mixed breed mutt. I'll be watching this thread for sure.
Notes you might need:
1. Steering shafts are different lengths between some models
2. Transmission tunnels are different lengths at the back end between some models
3. Transmissions will have an internal brake or external brakes, depending on model
There are a few other minor mismatches, but with a bit of persistence, they can be overcome.
Here's a link to some of my fun:

This is going to be fun...
Looks like you're off to a good start. Keep up with it.

Thanks Rhoderman for the link, I really enjoyed that. The last bit of 123 talk is, I loosened the fittings at the suction tube to drain the hytran out of the diff before shed storage. Was'nt coming out very well, so I turned the fitting completely out and STILL didn't get much. What puzzled me was the ""capalary" type tube that ran from the diff through the suction tube up to the pump.. So I took the tube off completely. Boy was I surprised to find this little guy in there. Appears the p.o. must have dropped his "fill tube" in while filling rear and JUST LEFT IT IN THERE!

Default ok, cant quit yet

I had the rear rims blasted, whooo dogggggy. This is the worst set I've had to date. The pits are pretty deep in a few areas. And I never was happy with the seams on some of the wheels. But with a little elbow grease and some red spot putty, I think they'll turn out ok.

Default and so .........it begins.

I pulled the 107 from the shed to the garage today after cutting the lawn. Going to begin the "resto-modifi-custom-ization". As you can see the 123 grill is sitting where the 107's was. And I do mean sitting, one bolt holding it up. My goal is to shorten the 123 hood and have it mate with the 107 fiberglass dash,, guess we will have to see on that. Also got the new rear tires mounted for this guy.
On a side note, I can't imagine I'll ever use the weight, chain, tire set up off of this tractor. I'd like some dialogue as to what your thoughts are on the matter. Mind you, I won't be moving snow with this guy, may plow some dirt with the brinly I just scored, or till a little.

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.
