[/quote=Don't know for sure but I bet you can find just as many parts for the 706 as the 966. They made 144192 706's and there are a lot of those still being used. I'll bet that you can still get a lot of part fom CaseIH. I have been told that the 560 and 706 used the same engine.

Yea you can pull a bigger plow and other tillage equipment with the 966. Here a 1566 isn't worth much as they were considered fuel hogs. But you can pick em up cheap. One in nice shape sold this past spring for 6500 with near new rear tires, hug duals, new TA and about 1K hours on a rebuild.

Location will also play a part on what is avaliable and cost.

I feel an open work station will most likely be most practical for me as the 25x50' driveshed having smaller doors to allow the Super M just to squeeze under the top of the roller doors, I'll have to revamp the gable end roller door to get a wider tractor in and if I had to get an umbrella to help shade me as I watched my uncles do for years then I'll have to do without a cab, but I can't buy an ol beater tractor with the front wheels pulling different directions whobbling back and forth..

if you guys think say the 966 was and remains a reliable unit, I'd rather wait for the right one to show and maybe see about giving it a new home, but something thats been looked after..I always feel you get what you pay for in most cases other than just a quick paint job..

So living up here in SW Ontario, there aren't the tractor numbers as there are in the US, so I might have to have one trucked up..What sized and type of attachment will i need, how many furrow plow and a 16' disk will work that tractor enough

Today's Featured Article - Choosin, Mounting and Using a Bush Hog Type Mower - by Francis Robinson. Looking around at my new neighbors, most of whom are city raised and have recently acquired their first mini-farms of five to fifteen acres and also from reading questions ask at various discussion sites on the web it is frighteningly apparent that a great many guys (and a few gals) are learning by trial and error and mostly error how to use a very dangerous piece of farm equipment. It is also very apparent that these folks are getting a lot of very poor and often very dangerous advice fro ... [Read Article]
