IH listed shipping weight on the H as 2600 on steel, and 3140 on rubber. That was with all fluids except fuel, but zero optional equipment. That means no draw-bar, no starter, no muffler, no lights, no electrics at all, and so on.
My 1940 gets into the 3500 class just fine, with 12.4x38's and 6x16's, all cast wheels.

I'd start my offer at $300 and if need be go to $500, but no more, as $500 is pretty steep for something that is essentially just a yard ornament until you fix it.
