Have to admit, the pictures here are great - some really nice looking "this isn't suburbia" lawnmowers. :-)
If budget isn't a consideration, go get a zero-turn. When it gets too troublesome to fix in a few years, go get another one. Repeat as necessary. I know a guy doing just that (more money than brains). If you want something that will still be working long after you want to, or can:
First choice: Cub Lowboy.
2nd: Farmall Cub with a belly mower
3rd: Super A with a belly mower
I've used my SA with a Rhino 3pt finish mower, and it does a really nice job. I've also used the SA with the mid-mount A-22 sickle bar to mow the lawn - no problem getting close to trees, fences, or mowing the road ditch. Sure beats the push mower, or Craftsman rider (mower spindle been broken for 2 years, deck rusting out, and no good reason to fix it).
And unless you have no trees, firm soil that a narrow front won't cut up, and a tall garage or shed door to clear the muffler, a Farmall C is probably too tall. Definitely overkill as just a lawnmower. Then again, Tim the Tool Man would probably disagree. (Ollie 1855... no, JD 4850... go big or go home: CaseIH 9370, 360hp with duals all the way around, yeah, for the lawn... de-thatch, fertilize, cut, bag, compost, roll, and all in a single 50' swath).

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
