I bought one that was listed on ebay several years ago. The company that built it was bought by Woods. Apparently the trencher was owned by a rental company and then sold to an individual. It cost me $1,500. A new Bradco was running at least $5,000. The type tractor transmission you need depends on the conditions. In soil with little or no rock a gear tractor would work. If you have any rock you'll need a hydro as others have mentioned or a tractor with a super crawler/creeper gear.
For all the use/abuse the trencher I bought had beforehand, it still works fine. Max depth is about 60".
