I'm in need of some Farmall expertise in choosing the right Farmall for my wants/needs. I'm currently trying to sell locally a Ford 3400 loader with no PTO. I recently test drove a M and a H that were for sale. I decided once the 3400 is sold I want to buy a Farmall letter series or newer (my wife liked the M best but my dad had a Super C when I was a kid). Here's my situation/needs.
- I have 35 acres with about 30 fenced off for my horses/mule. The other 5 acres need to be mowed occasionally.
- I have about a mile of dirt road that needs to be maintained (blade/box blade).
- Living on the Colorado plains, we get a very large drift on our road during storms. A snowblower seems to work best for clearing it.
- With horses, I need to clean/move manure from the barn. Here's what I think I need. At least a Super C but probably a H or M. A loader and 3 point conversion. I wouldn't mind doing some restoration work, so I'm not looking for something fully restored (i.e., painted). Looking for suggestions/recommendations. Do I absolutely need live PTO (SMTA) to run the snowblower? Am I asking for too much out of these tractors? Am I off base with expectations? I guess I could get a newer import but I don't really want one, much less pay for it. Thanks in advance.

Many times, as a small boy, I would cross the fence behind the house my grandparents lived in and walk down the turn row to where granddaddy would be cultivati
