Good day shopping!

   I stopped by our local junkyard the other day and noticed this old girl.  The closer I got to looking it had quite a few parts I needed for my 1206 restoration.  So after discussing it with the owner of the yard we came to a deal for the parts.  I pick the tractor up we weigh it and I take it home, take off what I want and return the rest and weigh it again.  Difference at .40/lb.  Can't afford whole tractor at that, but I can get some good gears and other parts at a good price.  Sad thing was this was a nicer looking tractor when it came in than my 1206 was when I bought it.  706 propane, unknown year (although it has the small motor in it).  Going to keep the front axle/rim, couple of range gears, T/A valve assembly, drawbar, some 3pt parts, dual PTO, weights, dual hubs and whatever other goodies this one has that mine does not.  Wish they would not have damaged the fenders though, as this one had real nice fenders when it came in.  Oh well.
