I purchased this old Cub from a gentleman who lived next to a jobsite we were working at . He said it has sat for a few years. Bought it for $100 .I took it home ,drained and cleaned the gas tank,cleaned the carb ,adjusted the float ,aired up the tires ,threw a battery in ,and she purrs like a kitten . They made this model between 69 and 71 . I plan on stripping her down and paint it . i will post pics when finished ,although it may take a few months .Thanks for looking !. 009.JPG

Great find! and well worth more then the 100 bucks you gave. You can't buy cheap built 2.5 hp no features push mower at Wal-Mart for under a 100 bucks these day. I ran across a fellow on the road who was a "Wheel-horse" nut and had his latest acquisition in the back of his pickup. The stuff like your tractor sure are a testament to the saying "They sure don't build them like they use to" Can't wait to see the resto on it.
