> Are you saying that there is a finite amount of repair parts? No more > backchecks will ever be made?? When they are gone, no more Yamaha pianos > will be made?? Of certain parts, yes. Ford will never go back and make a fender for a 67 mustang. Once they are gone it's after market junk, salvage, or make your own. It costs a lot to tool up to make a million parts. It costs the same tool up to make 10 thousand in a lot of cases. Upgrading your product is actually planned obsolescence. When proper repair parts are no longer available the product gets thrown away. With the unique exception of pianos, which people will avoid taking to the dumps at all costs, rat infestation and all.
