It's not eBay's fault. We're the ones who tossed all those factory parts in the trash back in the day and now we're the ones who demand that our cars have all the factory parts in place. EBay and eBay sellers are just capitalizing on our own behavior.

Bill,

I'm not blaming eBay for anything. They have just become
the vehicle to our financial demise.

Seriously, my comments here are more about the whole nature
of those of us that tossed this stuff, and those of us that
saved it all. Did others see this trend coming, or just
get lucky. Think about the ZL-1 block in another topic here.
Someone had insight enough to save a "broken" block and one
day it was re-united with the original car. Was is insight,
or sentimental value, or..........

Roger that. I think of some of the parts I tossed in the scrap pile 25 years ago and I just shake my head. The smart guys in those days just put parts in their attics and the many more of us just tossed stuff. 1975: Off comes the dual-snorkle LS-6 air cleaner and on goes the gold anodized velocity stack. 2006: $3,000 for a dual snorkle LS-6 air cleaner on eBay.

I wonder what's getting tossed off of ZO-6 Vettes and new GT-500s these days???
