Grew up and still live near what used to be the "Farm Equiptment Capital" of the world. The 3 major brands in order were JD, IH, and Case. Any of those should be a good bet for a small old utility tractor with a reasonable availability of replacement parts.
Remember Ford 8n's being hard to start when hot, they are somewhat more compactly built than the others, that may not be an issue with later fixes.
Question buying a tractor for one job, unless you want one around for other projects or general utility. If it's a one shot job it would be better to hire it done, that way there are no hassles with Equiptment.
