The tractor may very well have been started prior to your arrival. Key on these tractors is that the glow plugs all work properly, it has the proper gauge cables in good repair, and well maintained batteries. If you have all of that those old tractors will start very well. It sounds as if the TA is out which depending on what is wrong and your ability to do the repairs may not be that big of a deal. What kind of oil pressure does it carry after warmed up? If it has good oil pressure and no knocks or misses after being warmed up a little blowby would not concern me. Does the tractor have a wide front? 2 pt hitch or standard drawbar? What size tires and what condition? A good straight 560 diesel with good motor and TA, fast hitch and good tires would fetch around $4000 in my area. If it has a lot of issues I probably wouldn't give $1500 for it.
