In that era, NH balers outsold everything else.
The 2 JD models you list were also good.
No other color of baler was at all popular, and don't have any kind of parts support.
I'd look for a NH 69 or newer model NH baler. The 69 through 271 are all very similar, good solid older lower power balers that put out 100's of thousands of bales with no trouble.

NH and JD figuered out knotters first, got them to work right first, and that's really what a baler is all about - getting the 2 knots right 998 out of 1000 bales.... Less than that is a waste of time and effort.
