Spent $290 on this lot. The guy was a car collector and he also restored cars. Got some stuff on sat and went back on sunday and cant believe good stuff was still there. "Fill boxes and make offer" they kept telling me and I did. I almost wet myself when I walked into the huge garage. This stuff is so great, a lot of NOS parts and just so much. And this isn't all of it, got more filters plugs and misc parts. The great notables are, Bentley tail light covers, 1963 Cadillac boomerang trim that I listed last night and already got an offer for $180. NOS files, should have no problem getting $8 a piece. NOS KONI shocks front and rear NOS red rider shocks, Koni gets good $$$, NOS Ford model T parts head lights and glass lenses and NOS transmission liner, NICE. And almost forgot the LIGHTLY used Columbian vise with pipe holder, I am thinking this vise is an easy $250. Also an Undrilled bowling ball and a radio I have no clue about the radio and also the GR center covers I don't know what they are for. ANY input on the radio and the GR cover is apprecieated. And to cap it off stopped at a sale on the way home and got these glasses for $2.

I think your estimate on the Columbian might be a tad high. They are high quality but don't command that sort of price. The castings are light for the size and the name just doesn't strike people like other names do.

The car stuff is great and will always do well if you grab the right stuff, which you did. I really like that Plomb wrench you bought. It's rare to find ones that old, 1930s, outside of California.

Yea you are right about the vise but all in all I wound up paying nothing for the vise after the Cadillac boomerang, Koni shocks and the plomb sells, and all the rest is gravy. Im thinking maybe $250-$300 on the shocks just to unload them. all the other is just lots of listing witch I don't mind.
