feasable? they'll all tote a loader, the better axle designs for doing so are in the industrial line with the fixed hd single axles, or the 65+ line from the 4000+ (usually) models.. but those are getting into big tractors when you look at the light and HD industrial axle and the 4000+ ag model fronts.
60's and 70's.. that puts you in the very end of the 01 and all of the 4 cyl 000 models, and fulling into the 000 3 cyl.
for doing small chores, an 801/4000 4 cyl, while it has the lighter duty axle, it will still get alot done. I have an 850 and superior loader and move 2000# hay bales with it..
similarly a 2000/3000/2600/3600 with a loader will do lots of work.. all them are still small machines not much bigger overall than the original N series.. few inches at most. all have the lighter front axle.. etc.. unless you get lucky and find an industrial 801 model like an 1841 with heavy front axle.. that and power steering and you have a decent 45-50 hp machine capable of lifting good weight.
4wd will be dicey to find inthe 60 and 70 models.. you see some conversions.. but generally.. not much 4wd stuff.
for a small light duty loader you can find ford 711 / 722 1-arm loaders to fit the 4 cyl and 3 cyl machines.
all fun machines.
if it was me.. and I went pre 65, i'd get a gasser, if post 64.. I'd get a diesel.. but any of them in running condition will be fine.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Godfrey, Illinois Country Days - by Cindy Ladage. Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this
