Back in the day a dealer mechanic experienced with 1010's might have been able to get the job done in 18 book hours, but those guys retired a generation ago. Today a mechanic will need to order a service manual and read up on this new-to-him 1010. The dealer might be afraid they will wind up owning the tractor after putting several thousand dollars of labor and learning curve into it. Try bringing enough cash, $3,500 to $4,000 plus, to prepaying for the work you want done plus the extra time the mechanics will need to learn how to work on the tractor.
That is still a lot of money to put into a ($2,500 to $3,000 when done?) 1010 tractor. If the engine and tires are good you might get $1,000 salvage value for it AS-IS. You might be able to buy a 20 or 30 year newer tractor for the cost to fix this one, or even find another working 1010 in better condition at an estate sale.
