    I simply cannot believe this

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250744778359&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWAX%3AIT

    What next?

    Our cars are worth more parted out!

    Btw i am in Australia.. a little bit far from the rest of the world.
    I converted my QV88.5 yankee to euro and have

    1. Yankee front bar white
    2. Yankee lower front spoiler/airdam white
    3. Rear fibreglass "bumper" white
    4. I made up some rear suspension heim joint and suspension rods using polyeurethane bushes. Work a treat.

    Any one interested PM me.

    Freight to USA and Europe may be a little costly. But they're sitting in my garage and i am about to do a clean out.

    well....this is a good sample of shill bidding imo

    i noticed the biddin went from 500 to 5000 in few hours while (surprinsingly not meeting reserve...;) )

    first: this is not an LP400 tool kit: the LP400 kit goes in the spare tyres

    it looks like a genuine LP400S bag and tools though (rare item ok, but not worth half that, expecially in such average conditions)
    the tools, bulb box looks correct as the jack, i think the glowes are for a diablo though

    guys!: WAKE UP: It as free shipping!

    You guys want a steal at everything :)... As they say "if you have to ask how much, you cant afford it!" the magic sentence put in practice!
    Let see how high she flies.

    Price and value are two different things. Value is in the eye of the beholder. If someone wants to ante up $5K, fine. But the reserve certainly is from a different reality than today.

    What makes it even more amusing, is that you can still buy both of these items from Lambo-Stuff! Two Pieces together for under $200.00!!!!

    reserve not met at 5k$

    Yep -- that's what things cost now.

    And yep, they are typically worth more parted out.

    It's about collectors trying to finish their incomplete cars. Weird, but that's what's going on.

    I think I have somewhere the old one I replaced, unfortunately the plastic ring is broken (the one with the engraved "personal") and I reused the gear sign for the new one, I think I should sell it for $999 of course shipment extra :)

    Fred,
    yes for a miura complete-as new tool kit ..... and may be for 350-400 GT stuff

    but no, for countach tool kits...they are MUCH MUCH cheaper than this
    an LP400 may be worth close to this amount... but it is a very different item

    Begs the ???? though, why? That kit should have sold all day and every day @ $5k, so can't quite figure out his reasoning for not selling @ $5k. Jeez, how much does he really want for it?

    Most i have ever seen a countach kit go for was $2500.00 and that was in the hey day.
