Yes, and the big profit is in the L&G stuff. It's a lot easier to move around and store and parts are largely generic.
The big stuff is still cheap to buy, but expensive to restore. Deere holds its vintage parts very dear. I ordered valve guides for my 1930 GP and the dealer had them in 24 hours. They were $28
each,
WAY steep, but they did still supply parts for an 80 year old product.
John Deere prices make Porsche parts look cheap.
