What a great job you did on that tractor! What HP Honda did you put in it?

I'd hold off on buying a new deck, not even sure they exist. There are a lot of 50" decks around, and looking at the work you did on the tractor I'd think you'd make quick work of a deck rebuild.

OMG! V-20 is amazing!

Great job on the 782! Liking the repower you dropped in it and i agree lookes like the PO about broke every hydro and oil line in that thing at some point and didnt care to clean it up. Although i cant say much, my 123 was just as grimy when i got it home but the paint had a great shine to it when it was cleaned up!

That sure was a dirty tractor but it looks really good now. You got to love that powder coat. I just finished putting a Vanguard in my 782. ( SMOOTH ) On your head lights you can just switch sides ,meaning right to left and vise versa. When you switch sides you'll have to rotate them 45*. I had the same thing when I put mine back together after repower and paint. I knew they weren't that way before. Besides looking weird the lights won't throw the light right. You've done an awesome job getting her back to looking better than new. Owning something that long is like an old freind. Can't wait to see some pictures after you get the deck finished. Keep up the good work.

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.
