59 IH 560 Purchase

Posted by clayshootr on November 05, 2011 at 14:10:04 from (216.229.21.33):

I am looking at a 1959 560 Diesel. I need a second tractor to go along with my John Deere 720 D. I went and drove it this morning and it seemed to start well. (plugged in 50 deg) Had a few oil leaks around the pan and one injector. Looked like a few drops coming out of the blow by tube. It was in its everyday cloths. He said the TA worked but when i pulled it back in 4th gear the tractor seemed to freewheel and when it came to an incline it just slowed to almost a crawl. It seemed to put out a lot of white smoke when started and sounded like there was a faint miss in the engine, but that seemed to clear up the more it warmed up.

I guess my questions are will I get hurt on this thing if I can get it bought for around $2000?

Thanks for any input.

TJ
