The day I quit getting such a kick out of hearing something that old run better than new will be the day they put me in the ground. I don't care what the trend is currently doing, some years are better than others. I have seen the price of parts rise rapidly the past few years. We have lost some excellent parts people, both aftermarket & factory.
The trend I see that will continue is several running tractors get parted out every year, eventually, there won't be near as many available to either buy or part out. How many (now quite rare)implements were scrapped during WWII for the scrap drives ??? I am sure most were rusted beyond repair, but I don't see many today. I see it continuing, even with economical ups & downs. Their prices will continue to rise.
