Being farmed back in the 50's is not why the soil is loose in present day. Its because of years of being covered and shaded by trees and years of leaf debree being deposited. I don't think a 4wd is what you need. Will just help you get around further and tear things up even more.
I suggest you cut and fell the trees down. Anything to just get them down, and spray the stumps. Then start working on the down trees from the outside in. Being on sloped ground, there should be good run off when it rains. Standing trees hamper this. And the ground needs hit with sunlight to dry it out.

Tree clearing is very detrimental to the ground with equipment travel. Probly not going to salvage any grass that is already established there in the beginning. You just got to deal with these problems when clearing trees.

The thresher would bring in the harvest (and income) once a y
