Hello Case IH 2500??

[irishcountry]

Hello I was referred here by some guys from the chainsaw milling forum I frequent that are also tractor enthusiasts. I am looking at buying a 1981-82 (not for sure which year)60hp international harvest 2500 diesel hydro trans tractor with loader the price is $5000 the lights and gauges aren't in working order paint dinged up and it leaks a little fluid but starts and runs fine and has been used for a couple months steady out of the year as a loader. Really nice seller willing to deliver to me I am just curious if this is a pretty fair price and in the future are parts going to be available for it. I really need a larger tractor with a loader that can pick up at least 1200 lbs. this one really seems to fit the bill for what I want to do with it and I already have alot of 3 point attactments. I have ran a 50's ford 8n for lots of years now but its tired and no loader and I won't miss the transmission but hey it got the bigger jobs done. Any input greatly appreciated Thanks irishcountry

The only thing I have found is the hydro trans could be expensive to fix if something goes wrong and that its a pretty fair price plus it will "play" with 1200 lbs. Sound about right?? I know i'm a newbie but does anyone have any input?? I would appreciate it !! Thanks for looking at least.
