Cecil, there is a Belarus for sale near here with a cab and a front loader 
on it.  I don't know what size it is.  It appears about to be in maybe
the 70 to 80 hp range.  Maybe a bit smaller or larger.  I thought about you 
when I saw it but didn't figure you'd want to come all this way for it.
It looks to be relatively new and in good shape.

Charlie

If I could fine a cab for my 930 Case Comfort king, I would use it as my
baling tractor.  With the hand clutch, it would be just right.  Instead
that TS110 new holland has the  clutchless shuttle that lets me just
move the lever under the steering wheel back to neutral, wrap a bale,
then push the lever forward and the tractor starts on its own easier
than I can let out the clutch.    I still throttle back for starting
out, i just cannot feel safe doing that under full power.
Also, when I hook up the disc mower, my wife will mow with that
tractor.   Right ow I am going back to work on the disc mower.  It has
burned up a module and the right angle gearbox has a bearing bad on the
shaft.
