I have little knowledge of them personally (as in, I know what one is but that's about it!) but when I'm looking for info on older tractors I go to a site called Yesterday's Tractors:

That link will take you directly to the Farmall page.

Kind of depends on the mower...some have live hydraulics, some don't. Most early Farmalls don't have live PTO, which is ok for mowing. Sucks for baling! If you want a really small tractor, look to the A, B, or Cub...The C and Super C is quite small too. H and Super H are a little larger and quite popular, M and Super M are the "big tractors", but in HP are quite small. Nice tractors, really nice.
We had a 7' bar mower that bolted to the drawbar of the M/Super M, probably would work on the H too. I've seen lots of Cubs and the others with a belly mower, which could be handier. All depends on what you are mowing and how much. Good for you for choosing Farmall and not those pesky weird sounding green tractors.

I had a Farmall Cub that was a great little mowing tractor- 60" belly mower if I recall. The 'A' is the next size up; the 'B' is a narrow front 'A', and then the 'C' is a little bigger. Cubs are very common, parts are plentiful. and you don't need a SuperDuty to haul it around. I think the 'A' is about 1,000 lbs. heavier. Oddly enough, I've noticed that small antique tractors often cost more than big ones- I guess because they're easier to transport, work on, etc.
