If I sell a rental for 180K that I bought for $140K and purch. land for 40k do a 1031, what gets taxed?

Purchased a rental property and am selling it. Gain is about 40K. Purchasing commercial land for 40K. Trying to decide if a 1031 makes sense. If I keep the $'s from the base ($140k) how would that be taxed?
