I just bid $80 (and lost!) on eBay for essentially a bolt, a big washer, and a rusty little bracket (hardware for inside spare). I think I need a 69-72 Blazer/Jimmy intervention!
I was just thinking, my first car was a '81 Monza that actually ran okay, and even had a title, I only paid $50 for it in 1987.
Anybody got any stories of spending too much because you thought you really needed some part?
