I do agree that tires and paint should not be the driving consideration- the primary considerations should be the running condition of the Wisconsin engine and the operation of the hydraulic systems, especially the drive system.
I believe based on what I have seen in my area (Missouri) that value of the 630 is generally higher than between $2K and $3K. It is hard in my area to purchase a working Model 610 (belt drive system) for $2K at auction, and they usually go for $3K or more from retail sources. The 630s (hydrostatic drive system) I have seen at auction go for at least $3K, and retail for $4K to $5K. I spent a long time looking when I found my 630 in Iowa for $3400.
The prices I am stating are just a range based on my experiences of looking in the immediate states next to mine and assuming good working condition- if there are major problems than price should reflect that. I personally wouldn't purchase a good working 630 for more than $4500 because I know I could get a 700 series Bobcat at auction for not much more.
