The 666 is the clear choice. The 706 is junk.

The 4 tractors should not bring the same $$$$ for the same condition. The 666 should bring $5,000 to $10,000 and the 706 $2,000 to $4,000.

Something's up!

The tractors mentioned used a lot of different engines some with big problems.

The original 706 used the same D-282 engine that the 560 used, but in the 706 it was junk like a lot of parts on the 706. In the 560 it worked fine, I guess it was inproved version. The replacement was the German D-310 that did get good reviews and was used in the 756 and possibly some 666's. Generally the 666 used the D-312 a little brother to the D-414, D-436 and D-466. I once had a 826 that used the D-358 a bigger brother to the D-310 that was a very hard starting engine in the winter.

The 666 with the D-312 and starts fairly well. You might have to plug in the block heater when it's cold. The 706 has trouble starting even when it's warm. I'm not that familuar with the 560 and 756. I've heard a lot of good things about the 560. On the 756, I haven't heard a lot of good or bad things.

Also, remember that you have two different classes of tractor here. The decendant of the M 560 and 666, with a 5 speed trans and T/A/, and a new series (for the time) of tractor. The new series has a 4 speed trans with high and low plus T/A 16 forward and 8 reverse, The trans was larger and stronger, the engine turned up, and 2 PTO's 1000 and 540.

If they are all good tractors, you can't go wrong with the 666, but at the same price their is something wrong with the 666 and 560.
