Thanks for the compliments guys!
Several asked what I needed for it.. I haven't had a chance to look it over real close but here is what I know I need... Muffler, clamp and block elbow. I managed to find an NOS heat shield several weeks ago! I will also need the cylinder head baffle tin. It has the deep air cleaner but it's not correct.. I think I need the one that the cover seals to the base and has two holes in the bottom? I'm no expert on the 169 specifics so feel free to correct me. I need a 16hp flywheel screen... are they the same as a 14hp?

The positives so far: It runs well... was told the shortblock was built with an NOS Kohler rod and piston. It is a 12 fin replacement block, but I'm not worried with finding a 13 fin block at the moment.. the 12 fin will work.
Four brand new tires! The hydro is responsive and dry, and the steering is relatively tight and smooth.. The headlights were added back to it as was the hour meter panel.. So it's a good start..

I know I can buy a new muffler but leads on the other parts are apprecitated!!

The Gannon Earthcavator just needs blasting, paint and decals.. so that will be an easy project!

Thanks Todd!

The Gannon is in good shape... just been in the weather.. needs a good sandblast and paint.. very little to no wear on the cutting edges..

I'll have to check the serial on the 169... I did look to make sure it was a legit 169 but I did not look to see what month it was built.. guy told me it was late production but not sure if he really knew!

Todd,

If I read the chart correctly (always have trouble with that) It was built in late Sept of 74.. I have read that they ran into Oct on production. What month did the 169 come out? I'm not sure.

In case you cant read the pic of the tag here is the serial number: 2050048U523342. Thanks for any input!

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.
