I have a 62 gas, wide frnt. 3 pt. I have the heavy wide frnt. I also have a 65 606 with 2001 loader. Looking forward to videos. My 504 is the most cold natured and hard starting tractor I own but you are right, very sharp looking.
Glow plugs will start the engine even at mines 25 if the batteries are in good condition. IH fixed the 560 axle problem,it was a great tractor. The 1206s also had axle issues many broke in the fields working, allowing the duals to crunch into the cab sometimes in extremely rough conditions.
I have 2 656's with the D282. One Hydro and one gear drive. They were designed to use the glow plugs regardless of the temperature. The gear drive one I have will start in any weather without being plugged in. Just use the glow plugs. They get a bad rap, but they work for me. Spent a lot of time on a 504. The TA lever should stay back when you pull it. Something is wrong if it doesn't. Nice little tractor.

Once you get it checked over good make us a video of it grinding hog feed. Bet that'll clean the carbon out
Very cool tractor!
Pretty neat tractor, sounds dam good
The little brother to the 706 is the 606 not the 504😅
They are all the little brother, the 504 is the 4 cylinder version so I call it the little brother 😁
Your wrong about the tork it will lock back in low range
Must be so much slop in my lever that the previous owner added a spring to keep it forward.
