The 606 is a bit of an oddball as far as IH tractors go. Certain parts, like sheetmetal, could be hard to find. The engine/drivetrain are pretty much identical to the 460 Utility. About the only major problem they were known for are TA failures (mostly due to misuse/lack of maintenece). The glowplugs will need to be heated for at least 20 seconds before starting even on a 90 degree day, that is the nature of the beast. Make sure all six are working. These engines got a bad reputation for being hard starting because nobody had the patience to sit there holding the glowplug button. All in all I'd say it sounds like you're getting a good buy, as long as the 606 has a Fast-Hitch or a 3-point. Mabey try to get him to come down a couple hundred on his price, I'm not up on 8N values, but I'd say a 606 like you describe is worth about $5000 max.
