Here's where you can post your Cub Cadet based specials. Actually, if it's cool and not Cub based, post it anyway!

That looks more like a Wide Frame not a Quiet Line.....

Could be a combination of WF and QL parts. The frame is QL because of the serial # tag location.
The lower grill is from a 1X8 or 1X9.

The serial number for my 149 is in the same area as the one in the picture. One area of difference between the Wide Frame and Quiet Line is the motor mount area. There may be more.

Looked like to me that the Hood nose has the center piece....That was why I figured WF over Q/L....but it probably is a mix of both...

Yeah, I don't see a hydro speed control lever on the left, and it looks like there is one on the right. There is no gear drive shifter so it has to be a hydro.

My red 149 has a few QL parts to help make it look like a 66 series.

I wasn't aware that the later WFs had the serial # tag on the frame. I thought that was something they changed during the QL production.
