Just a quick guess from the limited pics, but it looks like it started over the back room(s), maybe in a storage loft or something, then burned really hot pushing the heat down throughout the building.

Look at the distance from the bucket edge to the front wheels, then look at the distance from the front wheels to the back wheels. This thing is gonna drive terrible and have almost no traction, and also not be able to cut dirt well or pick up much. Of course you can counter that with a heavy bushhog hanging off the back, but now your tractor is approaching 30ft long and isn’t very handy anymore.

You just described every front end loader on a pre compact/subcompact era out in the world. Plenty operators learned what they would and would not do. They are not nearly as efficient as modern platforms but hands down beat a shovel and wheel barrow.
 
I'd put that heavy ass 6' box blade on the back. Instant short weight. It's tempting to me if it can be gotten cheap and the motor turns over.

Beyond the front end loader, do you really want a gas tractor?

And I'll get dragged for this, but do you need another project?

Gas or diesel doesn't really matter to me that much. I know I don't want anything with DEF or DPF. No I don't need another project I need a garage in Camden. LOL!
