I am allmost with you, on this although I use a bit different criteria. Todays tractors are all the tractors that had the operator moved ahead 1.5 feet to allow mounted equipment 3 point or 2 point to be raised to a decent height without interfering with operator or platform.

Example; Farmall M, SM, 400, 450 and 560 great old tractors. They didn't feel that way when the row marker lever hooked in your hip pocket as you lowered the mounted corn planter. 04, 06, 56 and onward are modern day tractors and one in good condition could match any of the new ones on work. These newer tractors are also cab friendly.

Other than the Fords and Fergies, if you can look straight down and see drawbar directly under seat you have an antique. Just my opinion.
