Mosey, Looks like you need a nice older utility tractor with a loader. If the tractor has an auxillary hydraulic pump, you will not need (or want) the tractor hydraulics so you don't care if they are live hydraulics. Power steering is nice but not absolutely necessary. I would think that a Ford 2000-5000, International/Farmall utility tractor, Oliver 55, 550, or Super 55, or utility Massey Ferguson would be a real nice addition. Once you have a loader tractor, you will really wonder how you ever did without. If you are not in a real hurry nor overly fussy, you should be able to find a decent setup for $2500-$5000. Good Luck.
