From what you have described get an SC or 200 with a two point and scrounge up a three point conversion. The SC has very strong lugging power for its size and will pull small logs etc. For the small patches get pull behind equipment or three point mounted. If no one has ever shown you how to use the front mounted equipment it will give you some trouble and the time it takes to mount and dismount is long (why it went out of favor). Also it is model specific. A B or BN will not have hydraulics and you will be limited to pull behind equipment only. Stick with the rear pull or mounted 3-point equipment which offers you the flexibility of replacing the tractor with a newer model without having to replace the equipment. Otherwise a good SA will do just fine once you learn to use the front mounted cultivators.
Remember that the old Farmalls do not have live PTO and that limits how you use the tractors to pull bush hogs or stalk cutters. I have operated these types from early childhood and know that you have to kick the PTO out of gear if you get into a tight place and that is an automatic response. In order to pull this type PTO equipment you should consider an overrunning clutch.

It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro
