so far thats the plan as long as I don't wind up having to stay around work for something like my yearly audit or inventory.I am working on a game plan already though.

got the replacement window visors finally and did a quick test fit.the screw holes don't line up to my old ones because they were drilled in different places.I need to make the old holes less noticable in my window trim before securing them down.I will be spending lots of time shining them up with the mother's polish while I watch my british soap operas tonight :)

We've got a Speedo with an Odometer and the 'flying saucer' blank for where the clock would go on my wife's fasty.

cheers,

all speedometers have an odometer -- or are you talking about the trip odometer?

as far as the clock blank -- what year fastback?

Looks like 2 people really ran it up on each other.

I see the high bidder may have bid much higher as well. He has a bunch of upping bids on top.

somebody must have really wanted one,wow.i'll keep holding out thank you very much.

I found some of these in my stash. They are for the T-1 Ghia, but in investigating their worth, the only one I could find on the web was a blog about someone that got one from Charlie Harlock.
I will discount slightly to the T-3 people that want one. I do not have too many.
They would work well on the T-34.

Russ, that's a really really good price. E-mailed several of the type 3 folks to alert them to these. I already have one for Kir's ghia, oterwise, I would be all over one for myself..............

I checked with Everett before I priced them, and he said historically, $35-60 was the range they sold for.
