The things that are most telling on the condition of the mechanicals are the wobble in the hand clutch lever and the brake and clutch pedals. Also look at the bushing in the qudrant that the steering shaft goes through. Next thing to check is how well the shifter works, is it sloppy or are the gates easy to find. Does the hand clutch work, does it slip? put the tractor in a high gear and start the tractor out by using the hand clutch. Generally the most used gears, 2nd and 3rd, will show the most wear and this will be revealed by then coming out of gear when driving and going down hill or backing off of the throttle quickly. As always, paint and tires mean a lot and how much cobbleing has been done to a really great tractor. $500 not running and all there. $2000 everything is good and it is field ready. I've seen a couple show queens bring $3000 and $3500. Probably a #9 loader which is worth a 100 or so. I own four of them and they are used to farm with.
