Well now that all the EXPERTS have given ya there take on this . Myself i would need to see atleast pictures from all sides a picture of the dash up close , tire size and condition , three point or fast hitch or bare back . Dual PTO or just a 1000 shaft out the back or PTO DELETE . AND THE BIGGY LOCATION of said tractor. I do believe that i am a wee bit better qualified on 706's due to the fact that i have bought and SOLD more of them over the years and farmed with them and still do . Yes i have bought 706's for as little as 650 bucks out of a DEAD ROW and i have paid asmuch as 4750 for a super sharp late model 706 German diesel wide ft three point with excellent rubber all around and have sold said tractor to a good friend for 6500 . So heres the deal if you want to get the max out of the tractor (1) first get it running and see what it needs and if it does not cost half the price of the tractor then FIX it . (2) Clean it up and give it a wax job . Today 706 gasses in running condition in half decent shape could fetch well over 4500 and a later german diesel could bring upwards of 7500 . Now on the LOW side a DOA 706 gasser as we use to call them a THREE STRIKER and that is a Gasser , narrow Ft. with 1000 PTO will bring 1600 as a parts tractor to a salvage buyer. If it has a dual speed PTO and DOA to me it is worth 2000 to 2500 and i do not care if the engine is dead and the T/A is out as i will bring it back to life and use it for awhile and it will sell on it's own and i will still make a grand over what i have in it . We just gave 2000 grand for a DOA 1850 Oil All Over with a totally junk engine and hauled it seven hundred miles . And just as soon as the block head and crank get back from the machine shop give me three days and it will be back in the field. Then ask me what it is worth .

Today's Featured Article - Experimental Tractors Article - by Danny Bowes (Dsl). Tractor technology appears to have nearly hit it's pinnacle of development. If you agreed with the subtitle, you are rather mistaken. Quite, actually. As a matter of fact, some of the technology experimented with over 40 years ago makes today's tractor technology seem absolutely stale by comparison. Experimentation, from the most complex assembly to the most simple and mundane component, is as an integral a part of any farm tractor's development
