Looks good in the photos, If he has taken the time to create some Jigs and tools for this project It would make sense $$$ that he will be making some more. I wish him luck. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

The seller disclosed exactly what it is, so I don't know what the thumbs down are all about.... If bidders actually ran it up that high and the sale is legit, good for him, as he was very clear in what was being bid on.

Joe - I concur on the full disclosure. I was taken back by the full original price. He is trying to recoup ALL of his RDT&E costs in one fell swoop (just like the pharmaceutical industry https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/tongue.gif !). But if there is a demand and he can get that price, good on him.

-----Sam,,,Correct me if Im wrong but all the seller did was put the air-cleaner up for sale. With one exception early on there were two bidders who wanted it. He did get development money back and Im sure he was happy but I dont see where he was trying to set a price other than his careful description.......Bill S

The original starting bid on this thing was $599.00.. Would have been interesting if there was a reserve set on it..

I have a friend that has a saying for people who are buying stuff at a price that someone would consider excessive or high for what it is.. That saying is "there is an a$$ for every seat." It's true if you think about it... Someone will buy it..... I know I have personally gotten carried away on E-bay and paid a little too much for some stuff. Luckily I was never ripped off and the stuff was what the seller said it was. Just my .02 again.......

I can really kick myself for letting the original one lay at Charlotte this past spring for $2500. It looked like it was taken off the car when it was brand new.
