I would agree with all posters comments. The Cub will be a bit undersized. The A is a nice tractor, but lacks a 3 pt. hitch. The 8N is a bit nicer than a 9N/2N, especially one with a side mount distributor. (Easier to change points, etc.)

Other models you may want to consider in your search:
Ford NAA Jubilee
Ford 600 or 800 series (look for one with live PTO)
Ford 2000
Massey Ferguson 20 or 30 series
Massey Ferguson 35, or 135
Oliver Super 55, or 550
John Deere 420, or 430 utility
Farmall 300, or 330 utility (these tractors may have a 2 pt. hitch, but can easily be converted to 3 pt hitch.)
Farmall 340 utility

These tractors are all still very useful, with service parts readily available through dealerships and aftermarket sources.

Good luck with your search!
