a 3000 is a pretty good choice... front spindles will break, but are very cheap.. one side is $100 and the other 25 higher. Parts are plentiful and cheap new and used. would only buy if 8 speed transmission!!! This model came with ford 730 loader with a narrow bucket.. bit of a pain but sized to work really well with that size tractor and front axle. Early models would wear out the pivot on the front axle housing, later models had a larger front axle pivot pin. Live pto option would be a plus. Power steering can be added on very cheap if not equipped.
check for good engine, no blowby, good starting when cold. Leaking rear axle seals are a bit of a paint to replace but will only need to be once every 40 years or so, but the brakes will not work well with leaking seals. Most 730 loaders crack at the front cross brace due to side pressures, but can be welded and good as new. An additional cross brace(pipe) at the top loader bend will stop the unequal pressure on the arms and stop the cracking on this model loader and most all other ford loaders. But then I work them pretty hard and set t-posts, pull post and lots of other chores that proabably arent correct.
