Gorgeous congrats I have a T-45 in the same condition I really credit those cases they have always been some of the sturdiest cases ever made and really protect the instruments that one looks unplayed she is a beauty.
Nice! If only Hartley had advertised the weight of the darned thing, Id likely still own my T-40.
What is the weight? I have owned a few different T-40's and all were over 11lbs.
Yours looks heavy.

Thanks Guys!!! I do agree with mjac28 the case is super sturdy and keeps these instruments in excellent condition. I really have no idea on the weight but honestly it doesn't seem that heavy at all. Many tone options on these basses..IM HAPPY! 
That looks amazing! Was considering a T-40 when I saw one on sale down here, but the guy wanted a very firm £625. Far too rich for my blood - now I feel like if I had bought it, I'd have a serious case of grain-envy right now
She's a real beaut!
My first bass was a T40. Never missed it until recently. I'd like to pick one up soon.

That's a nice specimen - enjoy! 
I and a co-worker went to the Peavey factory in the early eighties for training and a tour. Hartley was innovative in CNC and had it going on, making ten or twelve necks simultaneously. He was also working on automating the finishing process at the time. Cool stuff!
