69 Judge T handle grip

[GaryC]

Hey guys, what's the current market on an OEM Hurst T handle grip go for? I had a Feb 69 built RA III Judge Carousel Red 4 speed car in the early 90's and still have the aluminum handle with the big H on it to that car. Currently I'm using it in my 69 Z28 but if I should ever decide to sell it I at least would know what is a fair price to ask. It's in really decent condition.

Are the reproductions close or no? I've never seen one close up to compare.

They are dead on in my opinion.

No they are not Matt...They have a brushed finish which original do not and the number 4 in the pattern is different. I collect these also...DONT ASK ME WHY I do some stupid s%$t sometimes.

I'll have to check the one I have to be sure but I think it has the open 4 on it. I'll get a pic and post it for verification.

Thanks guys.

Here is a pic of the grip. I forgot I had this white plastic one too. Plastic one probably doesn't bring too much does it?

I guessed instead of actually going out and looking at the few that I have. My bad.

The white one is probably made out of real ivory from extinct whooly mammoth tusks. Most likely a felony to own one now. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif

<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif It's plastic. Man, if it was ivory I wouldn't have it long. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif

Pm me your email.

Dan,

I pulled two originals out of my stash yesterday and compared it to a new one that I have in the packaging. Clear as day difference.
