Thanks Steve! I'm hoping that it will wind up being a fun project and not a pain in my rear!

Jay, you might want to see if you can find a 1864 that has the plastic trashed and a rusted out deck as a parts source. I have bought two of them to use on my projects. Might be the cheapest way to get the parts you need. I used the rear fenders and fuel tank and seat assembly from a 1864 on my 28 hp command efi conversion when I built it because it is easier to fill the tank. Another plus to this is you will have the dash parts to try to make the tilt steering work. Good luck with this project. I will try to post up some pictures of my 782 with the same mods for inspiration.

Thank you for the advice.. I had thought about that, and Sam had mentioned that to me.. Problem is they just don't grow on trees around here.. I couldn't find an organ donor close by so have been collecting parts for several years to do this.. I know it's way cheaper in the long run to buy a donor but i'm too far in for that now.. I may go the rounded fender and tank direction/tilt column direction later.. Here is what I currently have to work with without spending any more money.. Two 782's (one IH and one CCC) a really nice low hour CH18 from an 1864 with the CV driveline, a driveshaft adapter and fan support from Jeff, A full power steering setup from a cyclops, a complete P/S axle and spindles from an 1862.. a really nice 50C deck from an 1811... I scored most of this stuff at a low cost because I wasn't in a hurry to find it.. Thank you for any advice or encouragement.. it's greatly appreciated.. I certainly can't argue with your advice after the beauties that you have turned out!

Jay I’m glad you’re on this one. One of my faves as well. Will be watching this one close.
I was oogling over it until I saw the Scrambler in the background. Knowing what you do for a business did you build it or buy it? Looks original but What’s the story on it?

Mike,
Thanks for the complements!! I'll need plenty of cheering me on to keep me motivated! There is a long story behind that Scrambler.. I have known it since almost new.. it's all original.. I have bought and sold it twice in the past (unfortunately for me they were worth almost nothing during both those times). The guy that owns it now ( a distant cousin) had started a cosmetic resto on it. He sent it over here for some help with the restoration, (mostly minor mechanical). During the time it was over here he found himself in the middle of a divorce. Seeing what Scramblers are worth these days he kindly asked if it could "live" over here for a while.. lawyers are currently deciding on who it will belong to in the end! I'm staying out of it!

steering wheel puller
Worked on the 782 project for just a few minutes tonite.. I was dreading getting the steering wheel off.. but this handy puller makes it really easy.. about 3 minutes total
I bought this puller through a military jeep surplus dealer.. it's made for military vehicles with the small metal tube column and a bakelight type steering wheel.. anything from a Jeep to a 5 ton military truck. I have found it to be excellent at pulling Cub Cadet wheels also! Doesn't even leave a mark on the wheel! This one is made by the Roco tool USA.. likely from the 50's or 60's.. they don't appear to be in business any longer.

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.
