These were a good tractor 3000 hrs isn't to much.Biggest problem with the diesel engine was smoking when first starting (and hard starting) . This was because of a different design of piston when rebuilt they were changed for the earlier design. Does it have power steering? if so how does it work (THIS CAN BE EXPENSIVE TO FIX)

I have always thought the way a tractor or combine sheetmetal looks is a good indicator of how it was taken care of mechanicly. If it looks all beat up, then it was ran hard and beat on with-out care. IE - the clutch. My 2 cents.
