I got into the game in the late 90s when I inherited a Farmall A.
At that time antique tractors could be had very reasonably along with the parts (both used and new) to keep them going. It was great, someone who didn't have deep pockets could wrench on something simple that could still do some work at the end of the day.
Then it became a "thing". Prices went through the roof, it no longer was an inexpensive hobby.
I'm kind of happy things are coming back down. I never got into this hobby to make money, I did it because I like old tractors. I don't see me buying another tractor any time soon but if used parts start to come back down to earth then I can spend more on fixing up what I have. New engine parts for whatever reason seem to still be somewhat reasonable so I'm covered there.
Really the biggest ticket item these days is the tires. They're often worth more then the iron they're attached to.
