Default Putting the 149 to good use

Saved a 149 from the scrapyard earlier this year. Needed a seat, new hood, head gasket and the usual maintenance. Finally got around to these things and gave it to a friend of mine who has a bunch of grandkids. I pieced it together from parts laying around. All I had in it was a head gasket and carb kit. Best $20 I've ever spent. They love that tractor!

That is what started my hobby was the memory of dad pulling my brothers, sisters and me around in a wagon! Hopefully, some white snow will fall and the wagon can be replaced with a sled or toboggan for more great memories! As you already said, best $20 you spent.......but to them, "Priceless!"

Thanks for the kind words.
Hopefully either my friend or one of his grandkids will grow up to collect cubs.

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.
