495 was the previous IH 484 reconfigured to look more like a Case. D179 German diesel which is a great little diesel and the same transmission and rear end as many larger tractors in the 84 85 and 95 series.

Brakes should be checked because sometimes the axle seals can wear, allowing them to loose prime and its a significant job to repair. The emergency brake is also an issue as it gets left on and driven which wears the brake band away and its a significant job to replace.
