Nice to see, I always like to have info on how things were supposed to be. This seller always seems to have incredibly rare stuff at expensive prices.
He's had them up forever. Be advised, if you buy them for a convertible they are a very tough fit. I wound up making some of the underside brackets. They do show up on Ebay off and on.
What does that A#$#@!! seller think we're restoring, Bentlys? Annoying to say the least. Guys like that are not working the nos market, they are destroying it.
Rant over
This seller always has some rare NOS parts, but his prices are beyond high. The problem is when someone takes a car in to a high end restoration shop with a blank check the shop doesn't care what the prices are they just pay it 'cause they have a blank check. Hurts the rest of us that work on a budget.
I think this is the same guy that had the Vee Bar and bumper extensions for sale for over $3000. His prices are way out of line IMHO.
You can ask what ever you want.....don't mean it will sell. I could see some of his asking prices IF the item was the last to be know to exist on earth. If that was the case the re-poppers would be all over it like stink on dog poop!
I have a 57 Skyliner that I am selling. I did a restoration on it and it had aftermarket seat belts. I thought the brackets were aftermarket also. They are the same as the ones he is selling. I think I should add $400 to my asking price because of the seat belt brackets!! It is cool to know that the brackets in my car are the factory anchors.
