Depends. Our 70 diesel has the pony motor to crank the diesel. We have 3 gassers, too. All our 70's are good, strong running tractors.
We find the old tractors seem to have "personalities" and some are better at certain tasks than others. For instance, "15" one of the gassers, seems to excel at pulling. If one of the other tractors gets stuck, "15" is the one we use to pull it out.
"Vernon", another gasser, has excellent power steering, so its used for cutting hay and chores that need a lot of turns.
"Big John", the diesel, we generally use to power the baler. Because of the pony motor, you don't want to use it if you're going to need to shut the tractor off and restart a lot. So that tractor gets used for chores that take more time without needing to turn the tractor off and restart frequently.
You shouldn't have any trouble locating a good one. When we were looking, we frequently saw 70's up north (Minnesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska, Illinois, Ohio, etc), but they're pretty scarce down south.
