I agree with the others about the farmalls making great starter tractors. Allis Chalmers WC, WD, WD-45's are also good choices. Farmalls will probably have the best parts/accessories availability. Another tractor you might consider would be a Minneapolis-Moline. They are a really simple tractor and are really strong pullers. A good z,u,or a g would make a great starter tractor. There is the issue of parts availability but many of the MM parts are interchangable. Many of their power units will bolt in with little or no modification. They are also really easy to "soup up" as well. Whatever make of tractor you get make sure it has good rims and tires because it would more than likely cost twice or three times the price of the tractor to put new or decent rubber on it. Pulling also will put added stress on tires. Good luck and best wishes.
