A Case VAC would be another alternative to a Farmall C, small, light and economical for raking hay if you only want a dedicated raking tractor. If you are concerned about limiting speed for a young driver while raking or traveling on the road the C and VAC would be good choices as they only have 4 gears, three are under 5 MPH at wide open throttle and road gear is maybe 10 MPH tops. Lack of a live PTO and live hydraulics would be a big handicap for productivity and efficiency. IMHO, both would be too small and light to handle loaded bale wagons on the road.
A Farmall 300, 350 or 460 would have more weight and better gear choices, live PTO, live hydraulics, etc to handle a tedder. An Oliver 77, 770 or 1600 would also be a good choice.
The farm economy is very good right now, so any tractor will be expensive. You might as well get one that best fits your future plans.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
