What to look for in a used 460

Posted by dave on March 08, 2001 at 09:44:30 from (153.90.148.233):

I'm eying a 460 with a Farmhand loader
at the local CaseIH dealer. It has
almost 6000 hrs, wide front end, two-
point speed hitch, 6 cylinder gas.
Looks like a basic working tractor.
Oil looks (smells) ok, not a recent
change. Not too much gasket leakage,
and the loader looks pretty good, and
uses the pto for its pump. It needs
new tires (except one new rear).

I haven't talked with the dealer yet,
and don't know what they are asking for
it.

Could anyone help me with a list of
things to check for on this model?
Also, what do you think about a price?
Small/mid size tractors in our area
seem to be priced a little high here,
with good JD 2010s having (dealer) asking
prices of around $6500 and Ford 8n's having
asking prices of $3500 to $4000.

Thanks
