Jackman,
I quite agree, The CUBS are, in nearly all senses, very very well designed, very inovative for their time if you compare it with another tractor of the age such as an Allis B
BUT, honestly to put the handle just under the feet where the operating lever for the beaver bagger normally goes is just crass design stupidity, ah well, suppose nothing is actually perfect,
