Hello From Washington State
Posted: Tue Jun 19, 2018 10:01 am
Just picked up a 1650 that is fully operational, but needs some restoration. Been reading about the surprisingly few things that usually need replacement or modification. It obviously does need a new seat. Any recommendation as to specific seat to use for replacement? I have some acreage in eastern Washington that I travel back and forth to and although I have a Swisher rough cut pull behind mower as well as a set of pull reel mowers, I do have a need for a riding mower on one park like area with trees. Fascinated by older equipment and was not really excited about buying something newer. Maybe that's because I also have a 1955 Ford 640 tractor. Fun to make old new again. Anyway I'm sure I will enjoy being here and look foward to bringing the 1650 back to respecitbility while I use her by utilizing all the good information here.
Am I right to assume by the serial number that this is a 1977 International Cub Cadet? Also can one tell the width of the mower by looking as some have 4 wheels like mine or others I see on these tractors that have the rounded front bracket but only rear wheels? Thanks
