Alright,
I'm going to need some advice.... Here's my problem.. My grandpa just picked up an Original Cub Cadet, and I want to get him a good book on Cub Cadets. He worked for IH when the tractors were released, and actually has owned and sold at least 10 Cub Cadets. He still owns 5, well now 6! He's an avid restorer, and i just was wondering if there is a good book that he'd enjoy. I haven't been able to actually physically look at the "Farmall Cub and Cub Cadet" book, and thought it might be a good choice.. Any Suggestions?! I could use all the help i can get with this one. Thanks everyone!

I think that book by Ken Updike has the most information you will find on Cub Cadets. There are a few mistakes and omissions but very informative book on the different models made by IH

Hey Soldner...In addition to Ken's GREAT book, you may want to consider gettin' your Grampa an Owner's Manual for his "Original" Cub Cadet (or any of the others he has). You can find a lot of them on "E-Pay" and they make a GREAT gift at a fairly reasonable price!
