I love my super A and the 140 is just a newer version. One would hope any changes they made to it were all improvements. They do have a little more power which is always a plus.
I have no direct experience with the 140, but I'm guessing you'd be happy with it given you check it over as you would any tractor for obvious cracks, leaks, exhaust smoke, and odd noises.
They're light tractors, relatively speaking, so tires are real important. The better the tires, the happier you'll be when you're in the dirt.
I'd go with front and rear wheel weights, factor having to buy them into your total price if the one you're looking at doesn't have them.
And speaking of that, implements tend to be much cheaper when you buy them with a tractor instead of trying to accumulate them later. There are lots of parts out there, but the shipping will kill you.
The 140 was designed to do exactly what it sounds like you're doing. So its' a great choice. Of course, anything more than a few acres and you start needing something larger. How big of an area are you planning on working?
Also, if it's your ONLY tractor, you might be happier with something a little larger too - unless you're sure it's only job will be what you describe here.

To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
