First issue: Hydro. I would love to have one for hay and loader use. But a little expensive to fix. I used to be a C-IH parts manager. Not the easiest to find GOOD used.
My main tractor is a IH 1066. It will start when Case, JD, or Ford just puff smoke trying to start in cold weather. I have had a Case 1370, and still have a Ford 5000 diesel row crop. 1066 is more than you need, and IH has shifting issues for back and forth work like loaders.
I would consider a Ford, mine is good on fuel and easy to shift.
If you could find something with front wheel assist, it would make the loader work a lot easier in the muck. On that I wouldn't care what color paint, just check it over VERY well before you buy. DOUG
