Im definately waining, but still on the fence here and all barring a more thorough frame inspection but if you were looking to purchase this vehicle what would you be looking for.......or would you be running?

IH8MUD Forums - View Single Post - Combo deal a good value.....45/stout

Leak down and compression? ive done compression checks b4 purchase on several gassers, but this is my first experience w/ any deisel.

Running H motor, idles well, white smoke but 40* day as well. Maybe injector service but how is parts avail for these? The 2h seems easier to find w/ the forklift industry using them.

given its rough condition, plan would be for a in town driver w/ a 15 footer paint job over patched panels and safe drivetrain/brakes for in town use (75 mile round trip day)

care to throw any values out you see?
