These darn things keep jumping in my truck

1961 Cub Cadet Original
1964 Cub Cadet Model 70

Both have been nicely restored, including engine rebuilds. And both come with nicely restored decks as well

Now those Are Good garden tractors. Built way better than anything these days. Back when I was doing garden tractor pulling, these were what everybody that wanted their puller to stand up, used.
 
I learned to drive, and turn wrenches, on a Cub Cadet 105. About a 1968, I think. Was still running decades later when the house was sold. Solid. Well made. Great tractor.

Just sold my Grandfather's 1968 124 with mower deck and trailer. Broke my heart. New owner has it restored and added a sickle mower off the side.

But boy those Kohler engines really heated the oil on a 90+ degree day! I ended up running Rotella straight 40.

Amazing tractors.

Beautiful!!

Looks like someone really put some time and effort into that baby. The cutting deck looks new even.

What's you plan with these, some light use or just to putt around with?
 
Really nice to see. Every single part was made in USA or Canada, and no one ever dreamed of it being otherwise.
 
You should bring them down to the Tractor Engine Show in Portland IN this August. One, it would be cool, and two, you'll probably get multiple offers for several times what you paid for them, if you're so inclined to sell.

Hard to tell but isn't the first pic International?


International Harvester invented the Cub Cadet line....

the garbage sold today as "Cub Cadet" isn't worthy to have the name or wear those colors.

Oh, and I looked - - mine is a 102, not a 104 like I said earlier
