Hi Mike The MF40B was built from 1976 through 1982 the serial number you have posted I don't recognize could it maybe be 9A295742 if so it would have been built in 1978. Those Instant Reverse transmissions are a very good transmission the Main thing is to come to a complete stop before you change direction in the transmission. The $10,000 sounds a little steep to me in this area that tractor would probably sell for about $7,500 If I can be of further help Email me
