Cub Cadet Collectors dot com

I've had lots of yellow and white 82 series,including two or three 982's,but the decals were all the wider style.The OP's tractor is a repaint.Just my 2 cents....

Thanks Steve.I sure learned something today.I googled the "fat man" steering wheel and read all about it.Very cool.

Hmmm,I never thought about something like that.You might be right.Whatever they're from,I think they're pretty neat.Thanks!

I've got these two old steering wheels hanging in the garage and I'm not sure what they came off of.
Anyone have any ideas?

Okay,I'll play. Here's my shop. At the moment,it's ready for our annual Easter celebration. I've never had a problem with floor space. :D Kind of hard to show the whole shop but,for Easter,we usually have about 75 people and we have plenty of room. http://i890.photobucket.com/albums/ac105/cubcountry...

I'm not parting out my 52 Chevy sedan or my 71 Chevelle,BUT,when I'm dead and gone,I guarantee someone probably will.If no one ever parted out a 3 digit Original,they wouldn't be a collectors item.
I say go for it Mr. Nixon!!!

I haven't parted anything out for a long time but,when I was,I always said the nicer ones come apart easier.
They're only valuable to the people that collect them.It's that way with everything.

Assholes are everywhere AJ.
Part it out and and sell the parts to the guys on the Colt forum.
Sweet revenge.

This switch was on my 75,000 BTU Modine propane heater working fine until the plastic decided to crack and let the wires dangling so,I replaced it with a new switch ($80.00).After I spent the money for the new switch,I decided to take some Goop(good stuff by the way)and fix it.It works fine and I re...

Sorry Ray,I didn't mean to spoil your fun but,while I'm pi$$ing everybody off,
a guy I work with actually had this happen to his new Cub Cadet last spring.

How can you tell ? The paint is burnt off it . That era same tractor different paint.

Look at the rear tire pattern,the white rims,and the axles sticking thru the rear rim.It's not a John Deere.

Umm,You guys do know that's a Craftsman not a John Deere don't you?

I had that same trailer.I never had the tractor.Mine was hooked to a Farmall 400 pedal tractor.I remember ripping the fenders off of it because they were in the way and got hooked onto everything.I never liked the trailer because it was A/C and the only tractors I liked were Farmalls and John Deeres...

I'd go with the 10.50's.
You'll have more tire to ground contact plus more chain to ground contact.
More important on these tractors is WEIGHT.Lots and lots of WEIGHT.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Geezer,My wife and I are still laughing at your picture.

I bought these pieces about 2 years ago from my dealer.
They're probably still available now.

Here's a link to what I'm considering:

I've been looking at new tire choices for my Maxima and I kind of think I'd like to try a set of Coopers.
I think they still make Coopers in the U.S. somewhere.
Anybody have any thoughts or comments?

Thanks guys,

From what I've been reading,I think I'll pass on the Harleys.

I've got a chance to buy two old Harleys but,I really don't know a thing about motorcycles..One is a '69 Sportster that runs.It has a PA reconstructed title.The guy says these titles are worth money to guys who customize these bikes.The title scares me although the guy is a good freind..The second i...

I know this is waaayy off topic but,I'm looking for a front sway bar off of a 78/79 Pontiac Trams Am or Z-28 Camaro.

Also,check out the shipping costs.

Has anybody else seen this?
People REALLY need to do a little research before they try to make a huge profit off of grandaddy's old mower.
I especially like the way they "restored" it with the wrong seat and the tape marks and overspray on the tires.
Maybe they should contact Barrett-Jackson.

Hey Vince,Have you heard about CSA 2010?
I won't leave the yard if things aren't excactly how they're supposed to be.
Then again,I'm protected by the sheild on my door.
