Seems funny to me that most if not all of the consumable engine parts (rings, bearings, pistons, sleeves and valve parts) are available right here on YT!
Having operated both the 70 series Case tractors and owning a couple of 06 series IH tractors here is my take. Case engines had a sleeve seal issue. I was correctable with a little machining and many were upgraded at one point or another. Once that was done darn good engines. The power shift while nice on the 70 series wasn't the best design in the world. Now I have been told that parts for the power shift are hard to come by too. YT doesn't seem to list any power shift parts. Local tractor mechanic here who loves Case tractors says those parts are getting hard to find. TA's are available right here on YT.
The biggest drawback to the 06 IH tractors is the TA IMO but given when it was built a guy really can't complain.
Here a 70 series Case will bring about 2/3rds of what an 06 series IH will (not including the 1206, people are paying stupid money for those). Here an 806 will bring somewhere between 8-10K while a 1070 might bring 5500. The guys here who have the 70 series Cases love them but there isn't many of them. The guys with the 806's love them too.
But in the end it's your money. The 70 is a little nicer to operate. Now if you were looking at cab models the cab on the 70's is very nice for the age of the tractor. Way better than most of the cabs found on 06 series tractors.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
