Default 1974 Quietline Restoration

Here is the first pictures of my restoration. This is when I pulled it out of a barn in Central IL. I have the hood, fenders, grill, tires, and other parts pulled off and repainted. I have a goal of having it done by the 4th. I will take more detailed pictures once complete. Thank you in advance for any suggestions or ideas. Chris

Thanks Cubby 102. I do have a quick question. I was having a hard time taking the muffler off. Any suggestions on how I should go about that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Chris

Good looking machine! And I'll add another where in Illinois are you? I'm more Northern, about 40 minutes east of the Quad Cities.

I may be looking at this pic wrong, but are you painting the deck undercarriage while it's on the tractor? It looks like you have it taped off for painting

Thank you everyone. Jimbob, I have already painted the frame but I noticed some imperfections on some of the red so I was being a little picky.

It should be bolted on then a little clamp type deal where the muffler goes on the elbow. You may need to work it off rust could be holding good

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.
