Bob_Koch Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 Just out of curiosity I've been watching the Edmunds head that was for sale on Ebay. The closing bid was $2,247.22. Can you believe that! Quote
wallytoo Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 yeah, i saw that, too. there were several specialty parts going for big dollars. btw, that head went for more than i paid for my '48 b-1-fa152. Quote
Reg Evans Posted December 11, 2007 Report Posted December 11, 2007 That's crazy !!!! It also went for more than I just paid for this puppy (49 Plym Suburban) This one came with a good head and an entire car attached. Quote

Guest flathead6 Posted December 12, 2007 Report Posted December 12, 2007 Buyer has ZERO feedback... that makes me wonder. I sold an Edmunds head for $500 last year. It needed some heli-coils in the plug holes and sandblasting. Did I leave $1700 on the table? I thought $500 was fair for a 50 plus year old head that might have some hidden problem (ie. been decked beyond use, cracks etc.) Should have put it on E-Pay? Maybe. I can sleep at night knowing they got what they wanted with out being taken. I got $500 for storing a Edmunds head that was given to me 10 years ago. I sold some of the complete set speed equiment I had for the 23 inch block an most of the 25 inch block right here in the want ads section with what most thought were fair prices. Steve Hanks Quote

anthonyb Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 This head is almost as bad as the 'ultra rare' air cleaner for a 41 Plymouth with a starting bid of $125.00. Time to clean out some spare pieces, I guess. Quote
blohmiller Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 I don't sell on Ebay I perfer to sell my stuff on various forums I frequent mainly the Motorcycle forums I frequent the most. I'll give them a fair deal rather than sell it on Ebay. that's what i usually do with excess jeep parts from my cj (my other obsession/addiction), i sell them for low cost on the jeep-related forums i frequent. i have no problem doing that, knowing i'm helping a fellow enthusiast, vs just selling them on ebay. not that i don't buy stuff on ebay, i do.

MBF Posted December 13, 2007 Report Posted December 13, 2007 Yup-I don't like to be the hoser or the hosee. Some of these guys think this stuff is gold. Thanks Barrett Jackson Quote
