The 2 point hitch would concern me much more than the gas engine would. 3 Point equipment is very common and reasonably priced. I don't know where you can find a used 2 point blade built heavy enough to hold up to a 10,00 pound tractor like an 856, or what would it cost? It might cost you another $500 to $1000 to exchange the 2 point hitch on the tractor for a 3 point hitch, but you will probably save that much when you buy your first implement.
Check the archieves for discussions on 2 point hitch equipment and 3 point conversions.
At over $7,000 I think the tractor is priced for the collector market, even if it is great condition.
You should be able to find a decent IH 706, JD 4010, or early 4020 with a gas engine and a 3 point hitch for under $4500, $5000 maximum.
