dells68 7,494 #1 Posted June 6, 2019 And....a friend had it about 20 minutes from the house! A 414-8! Not sure on the year or hours, but it runs great! Only items I’ve found it needs are an ignition switch and a choke cable. There are about 3 rust holes in the deck I’ll need to fix and I don’t mind doing a little welding. I got home and couldn’t resist giving it a pressure wash even though it was raining. 11 10 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s been as excited as I have! I know that once he gets old enough to use it, he’ll probably lose interest; but I can hope can’t I?😁. It’s been well maintained and runs great! I’ve got a nice 312-8 with low hours that I had been using, but will list it for sale soon, as I don’t really need both. Here is a pic from when I first looked at it. Dan had kept it in his shop the last few years since he got another mower. It has never been stored outside. 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,038 #7 Posted June 7, 2019 Love that machine. IMO the 416 and 414-8 with single kohlers are the best all around workers. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That Cub is really nice! He bought it along with an all original 1957 camper from a lady in PA. The 414-8 still has the decal from a dealer in PA. Sorry, I don’t have a better pic. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dells68 7,494 #10 Posted June 8, 2019 I’m at a loss on serial numbers. I guess this beast is late 80’s. Any ideas from the number? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
