If you are able to convert that overrun into runway, go buy Anthony's 150E, because you're not likely to find a better deal on anything else in the air. If you're staying with 1000' you might be happier with a Champ or maybe a Light Sport. I'm at 4500+ MSL and get unstuck from my graded-dirt runway at about 1000 feet, solo, in a stock 1970 150K. Dirt is NOT grass. Grass is great for landings but not takeoffs. My final thought is that IF you are unobstructed, AND solo, AND below that 175-lb "typical" pilot, even on grass a standard 150 will probably work for you. Change any of those and you will have times in summer where you won't need a harness, because suction will be holding you in your seat.
