I saw on an earlier thread that an upside down L cast into the transmission case was an indicator of a demonstrator. Thinking it was more likely an indicator of a Louisville casting, (all Cubs were built in Louisville), I checked the 3 cases that happen to be on my workbench for a current project. Two are from Cub Cadets and one is a '48. They all have the upside down L.

I guess I'll take a flashlight and check the other eight Cubs in the barn and report.....

The location is in a difficult place...under the floor pan and behind the battery cable, but I found it on five of them. My demonstrator was one of the five.

My C has an L on almost every casting, upside down and otherwise, it was a white demo also, but the L means Lousiville. Don't remember when the plant was built, but it was either built or remodeled for smaller tractors. Others were built there also, such as the Louisville M. Perhaps Guy Fay will respond to this post.

My mistake, I didn't read the Data Book close enough. Saw two listings of serials for the M and thought one was Louisville. However the numbers overlap, so they are not Louisville M's.

Some, but not all, Super M's were built in Louisville.

Yes, the Louisville models have a 6 digit serial and an L suffix, the other SM's have 5 digits.
