Bought a 560 Diesel

Consignment auction this Saturday, 560 Diesel, 95% rear 15.5x38 rubber, narrow front, fast hitch, TA seems good, average paint, runs pretty strong and all around seems to be a pretty tight tractor. Looks like it needs a head gasket, leaks a little compression between the head and the block. Also might have some glow plug issues. You guys better tell me what it"s worth so I can quit losing sleep thinking I paid too much. Never been around too many D-282"s, what"s the typical reason for head gasket leakage? Sure I"ll have a few questions once I tear into it. Anyone know a quick way to test glow plugs, sure it can be done with an ohm meter, but I"ve never been able to find a resistance value for them. Anyone know what it weighs with no fluid in the tires? Trying to decide if it"s a good idea to haul it 60 miles with a tandem axle car trailer with a 7000-pound max GVW. Probably not going to try that.
