Yeah, I remeber how they made stuff back then...We had a 1964 IH "Cub" 10-hp riding lawn mower up at the farm-and there was NOTHING cheesy about it. It was SHAFT-DRIVE, had a rear-end that looked like it belonged under a car, & the mower deck was this bigazz heavy cast-iron affair..The front axle was cast iron as well, looked like it came from a 1947 truck. About everything I've used since seems rinkty-dink by comparison...
