    That is cool,I always like the looks of the super boot.I was at A swap meet earlier March and seen A old looking one and the guy was asking $100 for it,I didn't need it that bad.

    I remember putting a small light behind the red H so it was illuminated at night on the Superboots. Cool piece!

    Amen WildBill,
    Yes, my car has lots of his parts on it and he always picked my brain (not hard to do lol) and snuck a nice freebie in each shipment.
    He said an old timer did that for him and he liked it so much he wanted to carry that on,and he did till the day we all lost him.
    Good good man

    Seems to me that I remember somebody putting something extra in a box of center caps and disc brake pedal pads. Not naming names though, Fritzendinkleschplatt.
