85 IH HYDRO

I AM LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ON AN INTERNATIONAL 85 HYDRO. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ONE BEFORE THIS ONE. THIS TRACTOR HAS TALL REAR TIRES AND HAS HEADLIGHTS TOWARD THE BOTTOM OF THE GRILL AS MANY OF THE EUROPEAN SPEC TRACTORS. IT ALSO HAS A CAB BUT NOT AN XL CAB. MY QUESTION IS , IS THIS A RARE TRACTOR AND WHAT WOULD THE VALUE BE? SHEET METAL IS STRAIGHT,HYDRO SEEMS TO BE STRONG, ENGINE RUNS GOOD BUT HAS A FUEL LEAK, PAINT FAIR TO POOR, LEFT REAR GLASS MISSING. I KNOW HYDRO REPAIRS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE BUT THIS ONE IS SMOOTH AND SEEMS STRONG. ANY INFORMATION WOULD BE APPRECIATED.
 
Never heard of an 85 hydro.Probably European.As far as "expencive" to OH?compare to a JD power shift....Not bad at all.BTW,I have or have had 3 Hydros.Luv em.
 
Hi, there was an 84 Hydro, that was similar to the gear drive 784 build in Doncaster UK with a German D-246 Diesel engine. The European models had the headlights at the bottom of rad grill plus some other different options for the EU market.

Tractordata lists it and there are plenty of pictures out there on google.

Looks like a Euro spec. tractor. Probably not many in the USA but is it worth a million-kajillion dollars? Doubt it.

Have no idea on price. It's a new enough tractor that whoever buys it will want to use it, so you have to factor in parts availability. I'm sure it shares a lot in common with the Hydro 84, but how much?
