A pretty decent tractor and do listen to what The Tractor Vet has to say. A 706 that has a bad history will make your life miserable and one that has had good care will serve you well. If you want more along the lines of a bullet proof 70 HP tractor then look at a Ford 5000 even though they are not as nice as a 706 or JD 3020 in terms of features. If you can find one and can get local service/ parts then look at an Oliver 1655 or White 2-70. In a lot of ways the White/ Oliver is at the top of the class for the era and the power. Lastly, I question Tractor Data that a 706 with 282 diesel will reliably make 85 HP. If I want 85 HP from an IH tractor that old then I would look for an 806 which will make 90 HP with no problem.
