This had the 555 V8 Cummins, as long as you understand its quirks, there are a good tractor.

The triple nickle, like to run, not lug. Little smaller implement, pull a gear faster. If it has a Cat in it, its been re-powered.

The price is right if it doesn't have any serious unmentioned problems  Shipping is some what expensive because it is oversized and  trucker would need to buy permits.

Any rgn trailer should handle it. When we had the R52&62’s haul truckers put wood blocks under the axle and let air out of the tires. I remember the guy that hauled the 52 commented he dumped some of his air from the air ride for one overpass.
