DESCRIPTION:  I'VE STORED THIS FOR OVER 20 YEARS, ZINC PLATING & POWDERCOATING IT IN 1996 (about $50 in 2013 dollars).  SINCE THEN, IT'S BEEN STORED IN THIS LONG BOX (WRAPPED UP).  TIME TO FIND SOMEONE WHO REALLY NEEDS THIS!  I HAVE IT LISTED AS COMING FROM THE '66 GP THAT I PARTED OUT, BUT I'M NOT 100% POSITIVE (THAT IT WASN'T A '65 FULL-SIZE - I ALSO PARTED OUT 3 BONNEVILLE COUPES).  WHETHER IT IS '65 OR '66, THEY SHOULD BE SIMILAR.  I'VE INCLUDED DETAILED MEASUREMENTS, SO I'M INVOKING THE CAVEAT EMPTOR CLAUSE (buyer is ultimately responsible for making sure this fits).  THERE MIGHT BE A SUBTLE DIFFERENCE (betw '65 and '66) IN THE SEMI-CIRCLE BUMP FOR THE UPPER HOSE, SO PLEASE EXAMINE PHOTOS AND ASK QUESTIONS!  (BETTER YET, CALL)  THE ONLY ISSUE WITH THIS IS SOME SOFT DENTS ON THE ARCH (hard to see in the 2nd to last photo).  THIS MOUNTS ON THE CORE SUPPORT, OF COURSE.  LOOKS REALLY GOOD FROM 3' AWAY!

Length:  29 13/16";  Width:  12 7/16";  Distance between 2 outer holes:  27 1/8";  Distance between 2 inner holes:  9 15/16" (last photo shows the dimension data)

SHIPPING/PACKING:  BECAUSE I'M IN THE CORNER OF THE COUNTRY, SHPG COSTS MAY BE A BIT MORE.  SETS OF LARGE HUBCAPS (AND LARGER ITEMS) MAY BE DIMENSIONALLY WEIGHTED (i.e., charged more than actual weight) BY UPS IN ANY BOX 16”x18”x18” OR LARGER (> 5183 TOTAL INCHES).  I DON’T CHARGE A SEPARATE HANDLING FEE (FOR DOMESTIC SHPMTS), SO WHEN YOU SEE THE EFFORT I WENT THROUGH TO PACK THIS ORDER, YOU'LL THINK IT'S A BARGAIN.   I WILL COMBINE SHIPPING, IF ITEMS CAN BE SHIPPED TOGETHER SAFELY (by deducting approx. 50% of the lesser shpg cost for each additional item).  NOTE THAT EBAY’S SHIPPING CALCULATOR DOESN’T ADD THE EXTRA CHARGES IT COSTS ME FOR RESIDENTIAL DELIVERY, RURAL RESIDENTIAL, OUT-OF-SERVICE AREA, INSURANCE, AND FUEL SURCHARGE, AND I PAY A COMMISSION OUT OF THE SHPG PRICE.  SO I’M OFTEN UNDERSTATING THE ACTUAL OUT-OF-POCKET COST IN THE QUOTE.  THEREFORE, IT IS MY PREROGATIVE TO USE A DIFFERENT SHIPPER THAN THAT LISTED IN THE AUCTION (e.g., U.S.P.S. instead of U.P.S.), IF I FEEL THE ITEM CAN BE SHIPPED MORE EFFECTIVELY BY OTHER MEANS (i.e., more cheaply, or in pre-fab cartons, such as those used by U.S.P.S.).  I ALSO HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHARGE FOR ANY RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS THAT INCURS THE ADD’L “RURAL” OR “OUT OF NORMAL DELIVERY AREA” SURCHARGE.  THESE SURCHARGE COSTS RANGE FROM $2.75 TO $3.50 NOW!  RESIDENTIAL DELIVERY COSTS ME $2.80 ALONE, AND I ABSORB IT (DON’T CHARGE THE BUYER).  IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CALL ME AT ANYTIME: 6one9-442-2800.  PLEASE LEAVE A MESSAGE IF I CAN'T GET TO THE PHONE!  THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR BUSINESS & COOPERATION...

INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:  WELCOME!  IF THE SHPG QUOTE SEEMS A LITTLE HIGH, PLEASE CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING.  IT TAKES ME QUITE A BIT OF EXTRA TIME TO SEND A PKG OUT OF THE U.S.; A VERY NOMINAL HNDLG CHARGE’S BEEN ADDED.  I WILL SEND PHOTOS OF PACKAGING DETAIL (IF REQUESTED).

LAYAWAY OPTION & PAYMENT TERMS:  YOU MUST MAKE A PAYMENT FOR THIS ITEM (at least 50% down) WITHIN 48 HOURS.  I WILL ALLOW UP TO 30 DAYS (90 days, if pre-arranged) FOR THE BALANCE DUE TO BE PAID.  Thank you for your cooperation...

FEEDBACK:  MY REWARD IS THE SATISFACTION OF HAPPY BUYERS, AND MY GOAL IS TO ACHIEVE 5 STAR RATINGS.  THERE IS NO RATING FOR HOW WELL A BOX IS PACKED (CUSHIONED), AND THAT IS WHERE I EXCEL. IF THERE IS ANY DELAY IN SHPMT, PLEASE CONSIDER HOW WELL I PACKED THE ITEM(S), AND THE HOURS I’VE SPENT.  I’VE BEEN KNOWN TO DOUBLE-BOX, USE DOUBLE-WALL BOXES, & WRAP THINGS 3 DIFFERENT WAYS.  IN 34 YRS OF SHPG (OF EVERY VEHICLE PART AND/OR SHEET METAL/FRAME/BODY SECTION IMAGINABLE, AND WITH EVERY AIR OR GROUND CARRIER & TRUCKING FIRM YOU’VE EVER HEARD OF), I’VE RARELY EVER HAD A DAMAGED SHPMT!  I KINDLY & HUMBLY ASK THAT YOU LEAVE A RATING OF *****, IF YOU DO LEAVE A RATING.

FYI:  IN 2011, I DONATED ALMOST HALF OF MY YEAR’S EBAY SALES RECEIPTS TO THE JAPAN EARTHQUAKE & TSUNAMI RELIEF FUND…

"It is the symbiosis of outstanding technology and timeless Volkswagen design that makes this car an exceptional sports car. Its styling is clear and is reduced to the essentials; the car body itself has a lean and linear structure," explained Volkswagen Group Head of Design Walter de'Silva.

Concours d'Elegance of America: Auctions and Tigers, Oh My!

Sat, 30 Jul 2011

Detroit knows how to do car shows. Perhaps no area in the country outside of Pebble Beach can put on a multiday, multievent festival of sheetmetal in the manner in which the Motor City can. It's intrinsic, at times it's altruistic--but it's always about the cars.

How Fisker fell apart

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

At last week's politically charged congressional hearing on the troubles of Fisker Automotive, Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said that the company had "no business acumen" and that "taxpayers have effectively subsidized luxury novelty vehicles for the likes of Justin Bieber, Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Gore." Ouch. Republicans eager to score points against President Obama had a field day last week with Fisker.
