I don't want to start any arguments here, but good tin is important only depending on his intended use of the tractor.
If he's planning to restore and/or show it as an "antique"(which it is), then yes, good tin can be a huge bonus.
If he's buying it for a tractor to use to actually do "tractor work" with(which it sounds like since he's planning on replacing the loader), sub-par tin won't make any difference other than being something he can use to haggle the price down.
LOTS of the M's an H's that are truly still being "used" in this part of the country dont have ANY original tin on them at all(other than the gas tank of course). I know my grandad always took the hoods and grills off and stashed them in the shop since they "held heat in" and made it harder to work on the tractors.
Luckily for me, when the tractors were traded in, that straight old tin was left hanging from a nail on the wall of the shop, along with other "unneccesary" things like factory lights, pto sheilds, etc. etc. :).
