1965 cub cadet 100

[sbranson]

My first cub cadet. I did a full restoration and plan to find as many attachments as possible. Its not 100 percent correct I painted a few parts on the motor etc. different to better show it off. The plow is not a cub cadet and i coated it with raptor be liner.

I fab up this gauge pod for the volt meter. I wanted it to look like a option cub cadet could have offered.

The motor all ready to be mounted on the frame.

I found my cub on Craigs list. The guy I purchased it from had taken it all apart and rebuilt the motor internals. Most the parts were blasted and some repainted with spray paint.

Excellent lookin 100! I plan to resto one myself, but put my own little custom touch on it, exhaust stack and flat top fenders, maybe a hydro lift. Ill bet itll be VERY handy if the snow keeps up where youre at.

I would like to have had more information about your 100 restore. I'm restoring a 72, and what little I see about this 100 has caught my eye. Like you, I have painted a few parts a different color just to be different! This 100 looks like some actual thought was put into it. Well done, thanks for sharing!

John, Doug has not logged onto the Forum in 18 months. Maybe he will show up or someone else will help out.

John,

I have restored a 70 and a 128 so far, and spruced up an original. What kind of questions/info did you have in mind?
