About two years ago, this fairly rare Survivor IH Cub Cadet came up for sale. It is serial number 693746. Given all the information that I can dig up from production figures it was built in the last week that International Harvester was producing the Cub Cadet line before selling it out to MTD in a consolidation move. what’s cool is that all the sheet metal is in original condition. It is a genuine survivor tractor and I am reportedly the third owner. It has the 3spd tranny with an opposed Briggs twin. Originally this tractor came with a 16hp but at some point this was switched to an I/C 18hp Briggs (an upgrade that I don’t mind). The metal has some scratches and nicks here and there but I feel that it gives character on a well preserved machine. I was able to acquire a set of Carlisle Tri Powers all the way around. My long term plan is to build another plow tractor out of it. It needs some clutch work and some gaskets and seals in the rear end and then the tractor should be ready. It has no provision for a rear lift and so I’m going to install a Cat 0 very similar to this 782... I have had a Cat 0 12” Brinly for about 4 years that I’ve never had the opportunity to use and I’m looking forward to the chance. The only downside is that this would be another plow tractor with manual lift. I’m in the process of figuring out and assisted tension spring lift that would work from underneath the frame to the lift pins on the Rockshaft. Just maybe that would give me enough assist to lift it without having to fabricate an electric or hydraulic system to the tractor. I also want to put an electric fuel pump on it for better cold startability. Tonight I had it out for the first time in a year “playing” with its stablemate—GhostRider, my other plow mule. These guys will be running the furrows together in the near future

Sorry for the late notice, but if anyone is near Fredricktown, Missouri, the 17th annual Cubarama is being held this weekend, starting Thursday, the 27th, (set up day), Friday September 28, and Saturday September 29. It's held the last weekend of September each year in Fredricktown and is for the Farmball Cub and Cub Cadet, but basically anything IH related. Fredricktown is about 80 to 90 miles south of St. Louis.

Will a 12 hp Kohler Magnum horizontal motor out of a Cub Cadet model 1211 fit a Classic Wheel Horse without major modifications?

Yes you read that right I'm a convert, well sort of. I have been into Cub Cadets for several years now and decided to go out on a limb and buy The Wheel Horse Story Book. And to make a long story short I've been bit by the bug. I now have an unhealthy desire for an RJ 35 which is apparently the hardest model ever too find because I've been looking around for about 8 months with no luck. The closest big City to me would be Hamilton Ohio anyone else close to me?
