Awhile ago I was talking to one of my friends about me cub cadet that I got and he said that he had one that needed some work. It was a cub cadet 128 He said that he wanted to eventualy sell it. The other day I was talking to him and offered him $50 and he said yes. It needed a tire just to move it and the other three tires where flat. It also needs some work on the wiring and a governor spring. He said that it did run before and it also has a rebuilt starter generator on it which is probably worth more than what I paid fof the whole thing.

Here are some pics of it.

Just for fun here is a picture of it next to my cub cadet 147. You wouldn't believe what kind of deal I got on it.

Looking good. Those can be real work horses if you get them going good.

Definitely worth more than you paid for it :D :!: Nice score -- these are great little tractors.

If you only paid $50 for the 128 and you think you got an even better deal on the 147 I can only imagine that you were paid to take of someone's hands.

I wasn't quite that lucky. lol I saw it behaind a house and stop and asked about it and the guy that if we could get it on my track I could have it. So we fought it
a little and got it on. If you would like to hear the rest of the story let me know.

Good finds,,, great prices too. $50 & free i like the cost... These are great little over built workhorses and overlooked by many cub owners thats great for us.

I bought a 149 for $50 but it needs a lot of work.
