Default Hood Catch

After getting the 102 refurbished and painted I wanted to do something about the hood opening down on the grille. So first I moved the voltage regulator down on a rubber mount. Then I drilled and tapped a 1/4" hole in the top of the grille casting to bolt a small hook to. The next piece is mounted to a lengthened rear hood ornament bolt. The hood piece has a small hook on the end to catch the smaller hooked piece. No more marring the grille paint and denting the hood .

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.
