There's actually 3 in there. The one you are referring to is a 2003 Mitsubishi Eclipse, my son's girlfriend's car. She is studying abroad this semester and asked if she could leave it at our house. I put it in to put a maintainer on the battery.

Behind the Craftsman tractor is my '80 Z28 that I've owned since 1981 when I was young and dumb

Behind the Mitsubishi is my son's '97 RS Camaro that a young girl pulled in front of and her insurance company totaled:





It cost me $300 to keep it and they didn't even make me get a salvage title . It still runs and drives great, so it's my next project.

The oil spots on the drive are from my old pickup truck, not the Camaro.

That is an unbelivably good looking Cub! You have definitely inspired me to NOT restore my 1650, I can't imagine using something that looks that great! You did a great job.

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.
