Hi JohnnyPutt, Nope, haven't given up. But for the last couple of years there have been two job changes, some other financial difficulties, and two (soon to be three) teenagers that have required the majority of my time and concentration, and have not left much for anything else. I'm STILL (slowly) working on my 40U. The engine has been mostly rebuilt and should go back on the tractor later this summer. I'm also hoping soon to re-vamp my web site. Because of the time it takes to keep up a web site with "current" activity, and because I haven't had that time, I'm probably going to make it a little more "static". However, I want to continue maintaining all the 40 info and specs, service bulletins, and continue with my Serial Number / Block Number project. I thought prices at the auction were very low in general. Seems like people in general just aren't flush enough to spend freely on toys. I guessed $4200 on that 40 and saw it go for $4300. (If anyone wants to know the current value of a relatively common 40, even all painted up nice and in great shape, it's a little over $4000.) I also liked the nice 60 LP that went for $2300! Overall, I thought it was a great show!
