Ebay Surprise
Well I won three wiper motors on Ebay and it took a month to get them and when they finally got here found the first one was fire damage junk, the second was a later model with broken terminals and washer ports and when you thought it would get worse the last one was a desent condition 68 Corvette wiper/washer motor complete! Three guesses what year Corvette I own, AL.

Ebay
The 68 motor is the tuff one to find and it is 68 only with three wires coming from the motor instead on two. I paid $28.00 plus shhipping for them and if it was not for the 68 motor I would have disapointed, AL.

ebay is getting scary
I won [sucessful bidder] an l-88 hood on ebay recently on ebay. I had no more paid for it. when I got three e-mails telling me what junk hoods this guy was building. Anyway to make a long story short I got my money back, because the people sent me pictures of this guy's bad hoods. I confronted him with the evidence against him and he refunded the money. I learned a valuable lesson there.

That is a nice looking ride. It looks like it might be a little smaller than the corvette. It will be interesting to see what BJ will get for this car. Stay tuned.
