We are not the ones buying it and we have not seen it, so what we think its worth is irrelevant.  He is at 7200 and you are at 5000.  If it is good for you and you want it, start negotiating.

I understand I could wait to get a later model but this one is right down the road from me so I could literally drive it home without the need for shipping or cost associated with that. The pictures of this are all yellow and it appears to be more of a front loader backhoe than a actual case tractor which is what tractor data is showing the appearance of it to look like. This one seems to be more a commercial model. It does not look jumbled together it looks more like a modern backhoe that has a roof. It's not an enclosed cab but I'm just trying to figure out what to offer? He has it listed for $7,200, like I say it's a diesel that he claims starts easily and runs great... I would like to be more in the 5,000 range so I'm just trying to get a good ballpark number that it's worth?

I would not trust those hours on a machine that old.  Made from 71 to 76.  How they were used and maintained is most important.  We have a 580D here.  Replaced all the hydraulic lines and put new seals in the cylinders back in the summer.  You will probably have to do that too.  Aside from that, it works great.

I dont think you can compare machines 20- 30 years apart.. NEW always has MORE STUFF.

We bought a fence row 530 backhoe about 10 years ago.. Motor had water and locked up.. I rebuilt that...  Transmission, shift , rear end all good design and no attention needed other than oil change.

All the hoses were basically rotted. After the 3rd one blew, i replaced them all. Have rebuilt almost all the cylinders due to external leaks.. Couple of bucket / pins worn and needed replaced.  Rear stabalizer arm sockets too sloppy and arms hitting tires. Had to weld up and grind bore back to size.. Thats about all. ... I think it was about 1970 model.  For the money, you could not do better. We probably use it 100 hours a year.

1975, or 1976 was the last year for the 580B. I had a 1977 580C, and 1980 seen the release of the 580D.

If I were in the market I'd hold off for a 580E, or 580 Super E as they had a much better driveline in them including the Cummins engine which is very reliable and easy to get parts for. Extendahoe, and 4X4 were getting increasingly popular in those years also.

He has it listed as a 580B construction king, large front bucket and backhoe, he says everything runs great starts easy even in cold but does have some cylinder leaks which he has the kits to repack all of them to go with it
Shuttle shift works and brakes also work
I looked it up on tractor data it shows it was built from the '60s and '70s but he says it is from the '80s?

Used to see a LOT of them with city workers sitting in them, friend had a 680..much bigger.
As Phil says, usual stuff..leaks and pins.
Get it high up on bucket and legs, turn off engine,see how long it takes to touch the ground.

The engine and trans is usually pretty solid if they were half way decently maintained. Look for hydraulic leaks on hoses and hydraulic cylinders. Parts are available at fair prices on the internet. Case IH dealers are ridiculous. I have a Case 580B now for 14 years. Work horse machine. Great to have around. Here's my 580B.

I'm looking at buying a case 580B with 6,000 hours. It's a diesel engine that looks to be around 50 horsepower. What are the things that people would look for when inspecting this motor and machine? It's a front loader with a backhoe.Thanks Matt
