Default cement mixer motor suggestions

I bought an old cement mixer. About 24" in diameter, about 24" deep. Old,
old, old. Has new big pulley on the end of shaft, and motor plate. What
horsepower would you recommend so as to handle a good days work, and not
overload it or kick the 20 amp breaker? I believe I can do with a one speed
one direction motor. They are all over the map from $150 to $700.

I do have 220v. available, too.

Steve
