[AT] 4020's coming back?

In 69, I bought a new 68 year model 4020 with dual console hydraulics for $7145--what would be the price in today's dollars.  A really good tractor as I see them sell for more than that all the time.

The local JD dealer told me that they would go broke if hadn't stopped 
production of the 3020--4020 because the held up so well that no one would 
buy another new tractor.
