Today I looked at and test drove a local farmers 706 he has for sale in southern Minnesota. The details of the tractor are as follows: gas engine, narrow front, 3pt, 18.4 rear tires-40%, flat top fenders, 8900+ hrs, 56 style shifter, a wiggly tilt steering, and the pto was gone through. The serial number is 32551. The sheet metal looks amazing. This farmer is the second owner and really didn't put the tractor to hard/heavy use for the 16 years he has had it. It has run his feedmill the past 3 years or so. I was hoping to solicite you guys for advice on the tractor. The clutch has some play in it. I looked over the clutch linkage and in my non-expert opinion it seemed that the clutch needed to be adjusted. While I was driving it I was engaging the TA and noticed that the TA was slow to engage/disengage but didn't notice any issues/sounds/problems with it. Maybe just needs to be adjusted? The advice I am looking for help on is: what's this tractor worth? Should I be concerned about the clutch or the TA? Does this tractor have a short frame or the long frame? What other areas or items should I be looking at or testing to see if this is a sound tractor to buy?

You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o
