Hello everyone. I have been a lurker on here for a couple of weeks now and am truly impressed with some of the tractors and knowledge of some of the members.

I was brought in to the Cub scene a couple of years ago when I was given a blown up 129. I did a little research online and figured it was worth a rebuild. Am I ever glad I did! These Cubs are awesome!!

I now have a 129 and two 149's. I have decks from 42'' to 48'' along with the tillers , disc , 10'' moldboard plow , 42'' and 54'' snow blades and in the last year or so , have ended up with spare parts up the wazoo!!

Here is my 129. I refinished it last summer and still need to do the deck and decals but it's looking pretty good so far!



Next up to be refinished is one of my 149's. It's in pretty good shape and runs like a top. I am going to do this one with powder coat instead of paint.



The one thing I am lookin for is a good source to get the seats recovered. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks all,
Jeff.

Jeff: Welcome. To respond to your question... when I want to have an original seat pan recovered, I take them to an auto upholstery shop which specializes in antique auto restoration - that vinyl top material used in the 60's & 70's is good stuff... b - u - t, if you are looking for cheep...this ain't it.

Thanks for the welcome everyone.

I have thought about an upholstery shop for the seats. Didn't figure it would be cheap. I built a custom backrest for my motorcycle and had my pad upholstered to match my seat...can you say sticker shock!!

The seat on my 129 is one of those $35 specials from tractor supply and I had to make brackets for it to even fit. But I needed something. I would rather spend a little more to have it done right I guess.

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.
