stevasaurus 23,034 #2 Posted December 1, 2009 I do not see 706 listed for WH tractors...I could have missed something or it was made over there. Post the numbers off the tag...should be on the steering mount by the shifter. Pictures would also help. Nothing in the photo gallery. :notworthy: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TT-(Moderator) 1,147 #12 Posted December 1, 2009 The 706 was built in South Bend but apparently all of them were shipped out of the country - or possibly the few that remained were repowered and lost their identity or may have even been scrapped. I've seen pics of a few and there's at least one or two non-U.S.A. members here that do have them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,034 #13 Posted December 2, 2009 You know...I learn something every day. Jason...how many of those manuals do you have? TT...good reading on those threads from a couple of years ago. Looks like our friend in the UK has something to be very proud of. I wouild like to know more about that fire that WH club had. Seems like an excellent find Jack. :WRS: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miningengineer 1 #21 Posted July 11, 2012 Good to finally find information about the 706 - collected one today for US$100. Serial number 18 11 83 so not too far away from yours. Does anyone know when they were manufactured? It´s in nice condition with good tires, complete with deck and running smoothly. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,886 #22 Posted July 11, 2012 ...Does anyone know when they were manufactured?...Nice find. How about posting some pictures. My guess is that the "6" indicates the year 1966. The hood, fender pan and frame all look the same as an 856. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
