Firstly, you are awesome for putting your son first and making an effort to cultivate his interests and potential talents. I am sorry to hear about what you had to go through. Some men can be real @%*'s.
Are there any working farms within an hour's drive from you? If so, try to get to know the farmers. Gravitate to the folks who are kind and generous with their time. A great first job for a little one is feeding calves on dairy farms. Plenty of cool tractors on dairy farms, just be prepared to hose your son off after every visit.
Depending where you live, there are numerous farm machinery shows and plow days. I live in upstate NY, and there is plenty to do in that regard. Many tractor clubs for IH, Deere, AC, etc. If you join a tractor club, that will open opportunities for your son to go to various shows and events.
If you live in the Northeast, Country Folks is a good weekly newspaper that has auctions, events, etc, and it codify roughy $50 a year. There should be a similar regional farm newspaper where you live.
Best of luck with everything and please let us know how you make out. There are many great people on this forum that will help you.
