Don't waste your time with anything older than the 1960's, anything with out a 3pt or live/IPTO is a waste of time.
Yes, people did lots of work with the old tractors, but unless you want something strictly for show or fun it's really a waste of time.
I personally would not get anything older than 1980, you are more or less guaranteed a decent shifting transmission, diff lock, 3 pt hitch, remote hydraulics, diesel power, available fwa, decent loaders etc.
You can get away with 2wd and loader, but why bother when you can get a fwa the first time. My next loader tractor will be fwa, 2wd to much of a headache in the mud.
My pic is the IH/CIH 84/85/95 series and newer
I would also consider MF 200 series, Ford 10 II & 30 series and Deere 40/50/55 series utilities.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
