Re: Poly 318 valve covers?

[Gary Pavlovich <glpavlovich@xxxxxxx>]

There are several rare early Mopar parts that are few and far between 
because of inital limited production and disappearance by reason of years 
passing; these "parts" command high prices to a particular buyer; much like 
art or rare mechansisms - again, beauty and value in the eye of the beholder 
and acquisition according to your discretionary income;
ie. Max Wedge parts...Hurst HEMI Darts...330 Letter Cars...

While not everyone may be able to purchase or even want to purchase certain 
rare items, one can admire them for one reason or another...antiquity, 
scarcity, oddness, or exasperation, "...can you believe what THAT sold for?"
Kind of like on Antique Roadshow (KPBS series).
