I can't help but think that the buyer will be disapointed when he seems them, I have handeled MANY NOS Lenses and I do not recall one that was not scratched or chipped, and I bet the Chrome is scratched. NOS is nice, but Perfect NOS is a very rare thing indeed, so I do hope for his sake at that price they are Perfect.

Thanks for all the kind words from you guys that have bourght my Reproductions, I am sure if we keep working together we will keep lots of Great Mopar on the Road where they belong, regards George.

A set of 3 NOS 57/58 tail lamps just closed on ebay for $635.

I have some 1960 lenses hoarded, and I had thought that George Laurie's magnificent and more resilient reproductions might have put a serious dent in the market, even though I will not be reselling mine, but it appears that there are at least two people that are not aware of George's offerings or are just hell-bent on having NOS.

 

Hope they get their money's worth.

 

What do you say to that guy when your kid's baseball knocks one out of his tailfin?
