Looks like a Dupont overhaul. The colors are off on the paint job. The white looks too white to me in the picture but I am not a Case expert. The 1570 was fairly decent tractor but they do not have a super high resale around me in Iowa.
 

If the fella who painted it was the seller I would ask him how much would it be without the paint?, LOL.
 
The white looks ok, but dang he could plugged some of those leaks. Lol. I don't think it's avtrue spirit either. He's just trying to get a collector to fall for it.
 
I think the painter spent way too little time on preparation, and far too little on detail. He couldn't even cover the tires from over spray, and did not cover the rear axles.
Pretty damed poor DuPont Overhaul in my estimation also. It SURE did not make a positive impression on me. It would be interesting to get the "build card on it, to get the real story.

Neighbor had a Black one, Black Knight?? I can not remember for sure but I think it was a 1070 ???

He was Case top to bottom. 970 open station, 1070, 1370,2470, 2670. 2870 and later a 4890. He and his brother where the first BIG farmers around here. 2500-3000 acres in the late 1970s. I remember the two BIG 4wds had some motor issues and they where Saabs??? He grew up with MF but went to case after he had bad luck with MF 1800 4wd. Really nice guy. Heart attack at 54 dropped him while cleaning out a grain bin. The brother still has a lot of those same tractors still working every year. The 2670 has been on a grain cart for as long as I can remember. It came with 30.5x32 tires and looked so mean with them. LOL
 
Those big ones had Scania engines. They we're good engines, but I hear expensive to fix. Must uncle bought a 2870 new, later my brother got one used. They were brutes in their day. Seems funny that the biggest offered at that time doesn't even qualify for four wheel drive now. Lol My uncle pulled 12-18s plow with his up in the flat country in NW Mn.
 
With those junk rear tires and the engine leaks and assuming the power shift works and the PTO stops.......$ 6000 tops here in MI....paint should be free.
