Default My Cub 100
Hi guy's. I was in the market for a garden tractor. Really didn't know what I was looking for. All the new machines just struck me as flimsy. And they weren't cheap either.
I wanted something that looked like a tractor. Tough reliable and easy to maintain. Well a friend of mine suggested getting a old cub. I said whats a cub..
He showed me and the rest is history.
I was in love..That's what I wanted. This thing looks like a tractor. Within 3 months I had a restored 100 and another one I'm working on.
Love the web site and happy to be here..

Here are some picture hope you like them.

Grey 531, Very nice looking 100! I am working on a 100 right now. It will not look nearly as nice as yours when I am done. Maybe someday...

You are so right about the new machines being "flimsy and not cheap", my opinion is that they won't hold up nearly as well as the older Cub Cadets.

This friend really led you in the right direction and you were wise to take his advice.

With a little care and maintenance your tractors should give you years of dependable service.

Glad to hear you are hooked on the older Cub Cadets, there really is nothing quite like them.

I'm not sure if it is just my computer or if it is something else but your pictures didn't come through. If you would, try posting them again, I think I speak for everyone when I say we really want to see them.

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.
