She leave you any equipment to pull with this tractor?? If not, you're gonna have to look around for the various types of stuff - plow, disk, mower, planter, - that you need for whatever kind of operation you'll be running, as well as something to pull it. Something in the 40- 60 hp range will be enough for 80+ acres in most cases. Mostly depends on how much time you have and how fast you want to do it!
Something the size of a JD 3010 would be nice. An IH 504 would do it, though is on the small side of what you might want. A lot of this is going to depend on how much you have/want to spend, and being able to get parts/service when you need it. A smaller, older tractor in good shape is a lot more fun to farm with than a bigger, newer one that gives you trouble all the time.
Something with power steering and a 3pt hitch is very desireable!
