Default Another new guy from MA

New to IH Cub Cadet picked up a 1973 Model 149 that came with a QA42 Snow Thrower, 1A Roto Tiller, Jones Rake and 38" deck. The deck was in pretty bad shape so I found a decent 44A deck that I just picked up and a 42" snow/dirt plow. I will try and post some pictures later in the week.

Overall it appears to be in ok condition. Engine and hydrotatic drive seem to run solid. Changed the fluids and just ordered some parts to fix obviously broken items.

Plan on pulling the tractor appart this winter and refurbish/restore.

Thanks for the warm welcome. A few pictures of the 149. Ordered new hydrostatic fan, rear diff cover, Hy tran ultra, headlight and a bunch of other stuff. Plan to pull it appart this winter and replace all the work out parts and paint. Probably going to powder coat everything.

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.
