It's his stuff and he should be able to do what he wants with it. I have seen many tractor salvage yards that have stacks of frames waiting for scrap, or other CC guys who have the cast grills and scrap them, because, hey, how often do you replace one !?
At least he has saved many of them; here for the future. Have you noticed how many GOOD tractors (all brands) are being sold/ junked because the new ZERO TURN mowers have replaced them.
Save what you can but don't let your passions get the better of you.

Calling someone else's pride and joy junk is a little uncalled for in my opinion. I've scrapped cubs before. I don't anymore because they aren't worth anything. I have a friend who parts them out allot so I just give them to him.

Mark,
They're your cubs, do with them as you please. It's America, and they are only garden tractors. This is the kind of crap that ruined this forum. Used to be a place to come, sit around the fire, have a few "drinks", and chew the fat regarding Cub Cadets. Now if you post, you're told what you did wrong, why you didn't do it right, how it should have been done, and don't argue with me cause I'll always be right, get the last word it, and lock the thread. I really know the common thread to this issue as do most everyone else. I just read, lurk, and shake my head from time to time anymore. Oh, and I really wanted my Son to join when he was old enough. Forget that. This is the type of stuff I teach him and my daughter to avoid. They are raised to treat others, as they would want to be treated. It's even left a bad taste in my mouth whereas I've sold off quite of few of my cubs and am only down to three. Don't feel like working on them either after reading some threads on here. Guys used to build each other up, not tear them down, kick them, then laugh. So sad......

Charles,
I totally agree with you and your comments.

heck sam started on the cocktails around post 38 or 39 it is Friday you know.

Question for the OP, in the pic you show of the torched frame, was the owner REALLY planning on trying to put the shaft back in after he free hand torched it out of there?

I still think we need a section where we can post the craziest PO mods and the saddest looking Cadets we drug home.

Yes he thought he could just weld it back in,what a surprise when he went back the next morning and the cub looked like a pot belly pig.

Sam please don't ever think that a post on the forum would piss me off. I have never been pissed off by a post yet. When I see one member attacking another for something they posted I will comment or when some one assumes to know more about why I did or didn't do something like when I gave my son a car, I will explain. As far as the number of post that I make. I only post on what I know as far as cubs go I only know 72 series SGT I have owned over 25 and still have five and have done just about everything to them. I would not know a 70 or a 1641 if I fell over it. I also know mustangs (junk Fords )pretty well so I post a lot about SGT and Mustangs. I apologize if any of my post come off as bragging. They are truly not meant to be. The shame of it all is that many members feel the way Josh does and nothing is ever done. Think about it, a senior moderator ask me when I was leaving and called my cars junk and then he admitted he had overreacted in the post I commented on.
Three years ago I was dead on an operating table and then spent 5 days in a comma. It now takes much more than a forum post to piss me off. I appreciate all the PMs.
