I'd sure like to have a 3pt also on your list of features, there just is so much options out there with 3pt..... the two models you mention didn't come with 3pt, there are aftermarket options.....
Another thing to consider is the number of gears. More is better, if you have 6 instead of 5, great. If the 400 has a working TA, it will have 10 forward, 2 reverse, even better. And so forth.
If you are in snow country you probably want a snow blower some day. More reverse gears are better, needed. If you are a small operation you might want a tiller on a three point, having a very slow first beat is ever so good.....
You need 40hp for the haybine don't you, and be better to have 50?
Most of the features you mention started showing up mid to late 1950s, so would start there. Some of these features were options, so you have to look at the individual tractor, not just the series.
Ford 860 to 5000 series would be good. That is a large number of models, but there were a lot of good ones in there that would do what you want.
Oliver tends to be cheaper, and had some good models, I forget when 3pt showed up on them, 550? They tended to be one of the first to have the other features you want.
Good luck on the hunt, it's fun to go through all the possibilities, and sort wants from needs and then remembering reality and a budget.....

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. 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.
