Sounds pretty rough. I"d worry about why the frame was welded on. Coolant drips could be anything from a small leak running down to somthing major like an internal coolant leak. Pull the drain plug after it has been sitting overnight, if there"s coolant in the oil, it will drain first. Yes, it only has 6 forward/3 reverse speeds. That was the worst thing about the 15"s, even with a TA. They only had a 1000 RPM PTO from the factory, but a 540/1000 unit from a smaller 86 can be made to work. The engines are almost bulletproof. An exellent 1586 could still bring $15,000, I"d guess the one you describe would be toward the bottom end, probably around $7000-$8000.
