I baled last year with a $750 Farmall "H" and a $100 hew holland "super 66". I wasnt the fanciest guy on the block, heck I mowed with a bush hog and didnt even rake. Just picked up what I could, gave the hay to the cousens for horses. That is a low cost set up, but I learned to drive on an H and a newbie on one would have trouble baling. I would reccommend a farmall 300 or 400. Look for mech sound, pretty dont mean nothing unless it LA. An older JD with hand clutch will be very awkward for you unless you have driving them in the past. If $3000 grand is your max budget I would reccomend just getting either a tractor and borrow from neighbors the implements. Or buy the implements now and borrow a tractor. May cost ya a little $$ but most good neighbors will let ya borrow a tractor for a little help around the farm. My baling rig will be my H or 544, my $100 baler, my (getting today) $100 NH 56 rake, and 2 $100 hay racks. Last 3 are from a good older neighbor. I can have the 68 baler for a $100 bill as well. Supposed to be much nicer than my 66. Shop around and you can get a cheap set like that also.

Top that off with an old set of '36 Ford headlight shells bolted to the hood. Pretty unlikely for a car... but for a tractor, this is pretty normal. It seems that more often than not they a
