Welcome! That 70 looks like it’s in good shape. Judging from the gearbox and chute rod support it has a Snowthrower. Did you get that and a deck with the purchase?

Welcome Alan!
The 70/100 is the second series of cub cadets made from 63' to 65'. Nice find.

Welcome from WNY. Looks like someone had their way with some custom paint on your 70, can't lie I kinda like what they did to the top of the hood, though they shoulda left the hood ornament chrome. I myself have a 70 that someone had their way with some custom paint

Then I fixed it by removing it and deciding to add my own custom paint

*plus a nice correction of the hood ornament issue!

I also added the float clip to the lift lever, and used a proper acorn nut to secure the steering wheel, if we're getting into to the tiny details
