Sounds like you have a bit of an advantage in getting to run the tractor some before it is sold so you can determine if its a good one or not much better than someone who shows up on typical sale day. Unusual sounds, leaks, oil consumption, etc.
The power steering is easily worth $400 to $600 alone plus the live pump adds more value. No way would I sell that tractor for $1k if I owned it assuming good runner. I would say you got it darned cheap if you end up buying it for $1k. Heck 1300 to 1400 is still a cheap buy if its a good one.
Would not worry too much about the oblong hole in the drawbar either. Early M's had that thinner metal drawbar on them that was prone to bending and fast wearing due to farmers using undersize pins and the metal was not really hardened in those era of drawbars. Most of those early era drawbars are welded up with additional metal for re-inforcment or replaced with a "Super" series drawbar which is much thicker and hardened some.
Is the extension on the PTO an overrun clutch? If so that is $45 to $80 or so right there.

At this age, I believed tractor farming was the only way, hot stuff -- and given a chance I probably would have used the tractor, Dad's first, a 1936 Model "A" John Deere, to go bring in the cows! And I think Dad was ready for some automation too. And so it was that we acquired a good, used J. I. Case, wire tie hay baler. In addition to a person to drive th
