Same hood, but I didnt buy it, traded a hood for it, with shipping both ways I got a little over six bills in it, but this is what I do for a living...we all got to make one, right? That is one of the beauties of America, we are all free to buy what we want when we want, and to do the same when selling. Kind of like that Yenko Camaro up your way, the reason it doesnt have a new owner is because the present owner has not chose to sell and seems like nobody can change his mind. I can remember times when I almost got to buy something in this business and just missed it to someone else (right joe?), sometimes I have even went back and bought what I almost missed from the earlier bird and paid much more. That is the nature of the beast, or business should I say. This is the same type of hood I recently sold to another board member here which I also made money on, that had created quite a controversy off line with a third party who wanted it and wasnt quick enough, well if that party is done having a temper tantrum now he has a chance at another one. This is the nicest I have ever seen anywhere. I put a high price, which considering what this stuff is selling for these days doesnt seem high, because this hood is so nice I am actually hoping it doesnt sell, but as the old saying goes, everything has a price. This hood with hardware is an original that has been sitting for years and seen very little, if any, use. So it will have to be somebody who wants it worse than I do. Below is the link to the auction, will be fun to watch if nothing else. Heck, maybe I will just buy the bumper sticker, couple more parts and an emblem here or there and I would have a Nickey clone!

MM that would be a nice profit and I hope you get it. The internet and Ebay have opened up unlimited opportunity for both buyers and sellers. I think with the enthusiasm in the collector car market and the limited availability of good, correct parts the buyers feel that they have to get it while they can even if it cost a little (or a lot) more than what they would like to pay. Regardless they should not bid or pay more than they are comfortable with and not get caught up in the process. I've missed some items that I would of loved to had, but didn't want to own at all costs. As long as they can afford it, enjoy it, and sleep at night, what more could you ask.

Richard, actually my reserve is $500 less than the "Buy It Now" option, if somebody wants to use that option so nobody else has a shot at it, they have that option. After cost and listing fees etc, I will double if it hits reserve, if not, as I said I wouldnt mind keeping it. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Jeff, I would have bet money that was coming from you [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]! Nobody realizes the risk you take when you buy something without seeing it or a photo from a guy who isnt sure what he has! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] I may have got the old "Lets Make A Deal" proverbial "Door #2 Zonk"! So Jeff, I am still waiting on your phone call. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] Give me a ring.

Jeff, you will need mine to send me money to comfort my loss from you not sending the lead directly to me as I was only 45 minutes away from this hood. I haven't slept since.

motown, i was just asking a question. I am not one to pass judgement on what is right and what is wrong. There are others here who will do so. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

For what the person was asking for it and all if i had known it was a true hood it woud have been sitting here under a palm tree instead. Besides i already got blasted [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif[/img] for not forwarding it to others first. Guess Ill just have to start a parts house somewhere on the mainland. Maybe Nevada!!1 Nice dry climate and when I want to i can still go look at a beach a very big beach [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/[/img]

Jeff you know that you wouldn't be starting a parts house back here in your home in IL. It is like the frozen tundra here. Yesterday it was 2*! You got the right idea with just staying in paradise.
