I'm partial to the Fords. For a Massey 12 I don't see why you'd need anything any bigger than 3 or 4000, shoot, if all this tractor is gonna do is bale hay with a 12 then I'd even consider a 2000. Parts are still common, easy to work on, 8x2 trans is bulletproof, and they are pretty popular here in Kentucky, so a lot of people know about them. Just make sure you get one with the Live pto and you're all set.
I'd imagine that 35 tp 40 pto hp would pretty much run a Massey 12 to capicity, if not, then move on up to the 4 or 5000 Ford and you can sling the snot out of that baler. Of course this all goes for the newer Fords as well, x600, xx10, and xx30 series tractor.
Older the cheaper, with 2000 and 3000's starting in that 3 to 4 thousand range. I've always been partial to my old 3000 when square baling, it just rocks me to sleep, well, almost.
