Very nice!! Almost looks like a "factory cub cadet power unit"! Ford used to build power units using the tractor hood and grille in the same fashion you did.
Great idea and good use for the old parts tractor!

Ha! I like the power unit reference. I never thought of that, but you're absolutely right. It seems like a bunch of the old tractor companies built those. I've seen them made by Ford, IH/Farmall, Allis-Chalmers, Minneapolis Moline, and even Chrysler. I'm sure there were more.
I'm surprised nobody commented that the hood is on backwards, but that's how it seemed to work the best. I put the silly smokestack on it since the exhaust didn't stick out from under the hood with it on this way. I may change that around a bit since it's kinda loud this way.

Very nice work. It looks like the hood may be on backwards, lol, but looks right tho.Headlights would look neat in the panel for night work. I like that you kept the Cub Cadet colors too. I like it.

Looks nice, reminiscent of the balers and combines from long ago that had their own power unit.

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.
