Based on what you are wanting to do I�d say the heavier 9700. As JDS said around here $8 - $10K max for a really good one. If it�s made it to 10,000 hours I wouldn�t be to concerned. (I�ve got an 8700 pushing 12,000 hrs). Check it over good. Make sure the trans is good in all gears and the Dual Power doesn�t slip in high or low and shifts firm. If you are used to slick shifting syncro / ps trans, stirring the big stick on the 9700 may take some getting used to, but they shift pretty good at higher speeds if you double de-clutch.
I don�t have any experience with the 1896, but that sounds like it could be one of the Case /David Brown tractors??? I think it�s a little light weight for what you want. I�m wary of those transmissions.
If you look around you might be able to find a Case Magnum 7110 or 7210 maybe in your price range. Real tough tractors. I had a 7140 which I sold and regretted it ever since!
Any old high hour�d tractor is a bit of a gamble. Good luck.

He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana.
