Default Re: NOS Trunk Weatherstrip

[ QUOTE ]
Is it just me or does it seem like the prices of parts such as this NOS weather stripping keep rising in value while the market for restored Camaros is supposedly on the decline??

I would agree with you, Tommy. Here's one theory to explain why. Consider that the restored Camaro, once sold, is still in existance and may very well be back on the market some time in the future. On the other hand, once NOS parts are sold, they are most likely intended to be installed on a restoration project rather than sold again.

Its really a matter of supply. In short, the supply of NOS parts declines as they get sold and most of them get used up, whereas the supply of restored Camaros does not, as they have the potential to reappear on the market.
