Check these out, you may run into a mounting problem among other things like hardware, belts, pulleys, spindles, blades, etc. By not using original deck part # 983-04113A-0637, I think it's going to take some time & patience.
Also check craigslist your area.

One of the fabulous things that MTD did when they bought out Cub Cadet was to adopt the Cub quick mounting system across their entire range. :thumbsup:
The bad bit is they have only gone to common mounting centers quite reciently so you may need to move the lift mounting points to fit your mower. :thumbdown:
So the long and short of it is any deck can be made to fit without a lot of work if you can weld, just remove the old rear mount which should bolt on the the front mount which should be welded on.
I have done this a few times With smaller decks 48" as old Cub decks are thin on the ground down here.
Easiest to do with fabricated decks as they are thick steel so will take welding or just plain bolting together .
I would have thought that you would be able to get bare decks over there for a reasonable price
