Re: Is it real or not?

Wow... 33 bids on that piece between 2 dudes. Starting price was $100 bucks. Which is still probably too much.

If you want the real thing, you have to pay for it. How often do you see these?

Looks real to me.

Re: Is it real or not?

I am sure glad I have common sense. Rare or not I would never pay that much for something stupid. Sorry if people actually care for things like this. As long as my truck is running and driving the accessories don't mean nada to me. Ridiculous on that price for a piece like that.

That price leaves me speechless. I could rebuild the whole front suspension on my Camaro for that, give or take a couple dollars.

Re: Is it real or not?

Everyone is commenting on the price and overlooking the original question.. Is it NOS? the only thing NOS in that picture is the package. The woodgrain is not.
Hope that helps Paul

I didn't think the grain looked correct either, but wasn't sure if maybe a GM replacement one was different.

At that kind of price we are gonna have to worry about thieves bypassing our radios and stealing our glove box doors.
