Just as a hobby, buying beaters cheap, making them better looking working tractors, and then selling-trading for the next project....
I've had the best luck with 54-64 gas Fords in my area.
They sell quickly and have much better features than the earlier N's. (and N's here are overpriced, beaters or already done)
The later 'Blue' Fords are also good, except finding a cheap one to start with is tough and you have the added expenses if the diesel engine components have issues.
You have to find the good deals on barn-hedgerow tractors and move quickly....lots of people like me are looking too.
If you like other brands, for resale to hobby type users, a 3-point hitch is a must.
Exception is John Deere of course. Early JD's, if you find them cheap (HA), and get them freed up and running/moving only.....you can double-triple your money here easily
