Hello from Gresham, Oregon. My wife and I just bought a couple acres outside of town and now need a tractor to keep the grass down. (Sounds like a poem
 ). I grew up not far from here on a couple acres. When I was young I remember the day that our brand new IH 149 arrived. Came with the mower and tiller. I couldnt wait to be old enough/big enough to ride it. When my feet could reach the pedals the chore of mowing the grass became my responsibility. I loved that tractor and I enjoyed the job of mowing our grass. Dad still has the tractor and said I can have it and I am looking forward to seeing what I can do with it. Amazingly it still runs after all the abuse and neglect the poor thing went through. It still looks pretty good though as it was kept inside all these years. The mower deck gave up years ago and unfortunately dad threw it away. Im afraid it will be hard to find a replacement but maybe I will get lucky or can fabricate something. Any suggestions out there?

 Hp3mi!! Great story about growing up on your family's 149. It's nice to see your still keeping it in the family too! There are a few members up in your neck of the woods, so I would bet you could snatch a deck from someone not too far away. Keep your eyes on Craigslist as well, you'd be surprised what might pop up !  Jeff (teet)

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.
