    Hmmm

    Gee, and I thought I had some coin in my 69 Edelbrock covers with the Jim Weise polish (which made them look better than NEW :TU: ). So, what would you expect the realistic value is, $200-$300 tops? :Do No: Kinda makes you think a set of heads come with um. :laugh:

    I wouldn't call it stupid money (unless they sell for that :rolleyes: ), I 'd call it ignorant seller. :Smarty: :laugh:

    Then again, if they do sell we surely are all idiots! :Dou:

    If they sell mine will be on ebay and I will take the money and get a set from SRE. I wonder why he feels they are worth so much? If its because they are old KB I have old KB rockers and KB 2" pulse headers on mine also, Maybe I am sitting on a gold mine and don't know it. :laugh: :Dou:

    I emailed this person through ebay and asked in a nice way why he thinks these covers are worth so much, Have to wait and see what I get back. I told him I didn't think they are that rare and I got a set a few years ago for $50 used. Tom
