I agree Gary, Ebay has both hurt AND helped us...if you don't have
access to a good yard like Dr. Mopar or similar, Ebay may be your only
source for the parts you need for your restoration. I live in central
Ohio, and there are virtually NO old yards left as they all crushed old
cars years ago. If you DO find an old car in a yard, it's rarely a
Mopar. However, Ebay has hurt us by leading the public to believe that
the old 4-door, 6 cylinder Mopar that's been sitting in their woods for
30 years is a rare and desirable car now that prices have skyrocketed.
They buy a $4 camera, take one crappy pic and expect the car to sell for
$1000 on Ebay. But as long as there are people with serious money in the
hobby, the prices will probably stay high enough that most of us will
never be able to afford to replace that Roadrunner or Cuda we had back
in the 70's. Sorry for the long-winded post guys, the prices just annoy
the hell outta me! I need a 4-spd top plate for my 64 Polara, but I
REFUSE to pay $400 on average for a plate that needs rechromed. And
that's just ONE example, I'm sure each of us has his own.
