I would like to see a small sample of grease out of the drain plugs of the rear end and engine.
Other than some of the other things that have been already mentioned (Tires,sheet metal)How has the tractor been treated it's whole life??? (Sits outside all the time? Looks like it has been beaten with a hammer? Alot of torch marks on it,bailing wire tieing things together? Just abused,ECT!)
Does EVERYTHING work on it???? Hydraulics can be expensive if not working.
Also,I always made it a point to run it through ALL the gears and take them up the road in 5th gear wide open.if the owner refused this,I might question weather or not I would be buying this tractor???
You can also tell ALOT by just the way the seller conducts him self. I WILL NOT buy off of someone trying to push his "Problem child" off on me for an outragious price!!!!
When I bought mine off of the older fellow,he was kind,courtious,mechanically inclined,LIKES equipment,would tell me details about what has been done to it,let me test out anything,take it up the road FULL BORE,AND even delivered it to me for a SMALL destination charge!
He was one of the good ones! If I ever decide to sell it,I will call him back first.(He had shown interest in maybe owning it again one day.)
