farmall cub hood

looking at another cub, the hood and gas tank are not attached to each other like on my other two, and all other cubs I have seen. Just wondering if there are hoods out there that are separate like on the letter series?? I have only seen this cub on a bad e-mail picture
 
I've never seen or heard of one. Not to say that I think it's a bad idea. It's a pain to hafta take the grill, gas tank, and hood all off if you only need access to part.

I wonder if it's been modified to make things easier ? That would be a handy improvement. It sure isn't stock. BTW I manned up and bought an "A" AND an Oliver 70 orchard !!
 
I'm going Saturday or Sunday to look at (and hopefully purchase) my first Cub.. Supposed to be a "older" unit, decent running and looking. Friend of mine bought it for what intent I don't know.. He knew I was looking for one for my little guy and told me about it, so..

It'll join the stable with my Farmall H, pair of Co-Op/Cockshutt E3/30's, Massey 33, Case 930, and D-17 Allis.

I've been around (and worked on) a few cubs however, and I too cannot recall ever seeing one with the hood separate from the tank

If the hood and the tank are separate on this Cub, then it's not factory.[Doesn't apply to the 154/185/185 Lo-Boys.] On a regular Cub, to separate the hood form the tank, someone would have to fabricate some sort of front tank support. THEN they'd also have to fabricate a rear hood support, even if it was only welding in some extra metal on the back edge of the hood to overlap the front edge of the tank a little bit.

I'd love to see how this was engineered. If it's a duct tape and JB-Weld solution, I'd RUN from this one...FAST.
