I like your choices....I've owned everything you listed except for the JD A and the Farmall 460. (currently my everyday work tractor is a Farmall 656)

Considering the choices from a draw bar horsepower standpoint, the 460 has about 45 HP, but the thing to remember is that its a more 'modern' tractor than the letter series Farmalls, and is a bit more complex to restore.

You might want to think about a Super M: they average about 43-44 HP at the draw bar (as compared to 33 HP for the M), which still beats the Oliver 88's 34 HP, and the WD45's 39-40 HP. The A's low on the totem at 34 HP. (And I've noticed that restoreable SM's aren't too badly priced right now)

If you like your H, then you should like the SM, the 'big boy' of the letter series.
