Coming across some oddball stuff and thought I would ask
attachment.php
...

How does one determine an ask price on items one can't find a reference for?
These old cleaning kit are too neat to use but might be good for show?

Peter, I don't think that is the correct one for your car.

Surely someone knows what that gold, serif style emblem is from? I cannot find it on the Internet.

Some of you have Italian cars. Need gauges. Here are 11 in nice shape.
Canada Post rates are insane...
So 175 shipped for all?
Just thought I would throw it out here before eBay.
Cheers

Sad story. When I bought my coupe, it was sitting at a retired BMW dealers shop. A guy traded it in on a 6er in the 80s sometime. Sat in the shop since then with the owners son puttering on it til the son tragically passed away. They took it out for a spin once in a while with the dealer plates but never got it it's own plates.
Anyways, I could only accommodate so much stuff at the time and rented a double garage to store the parts, the car and tools I bought.
Here is the point....there was an attic full of NOS Fiat sheet metal and parts. Most of it went to the crusher. There was an old timer there with an X/19 who took vrything for that car but we couldn't find anyone to even come and look at the Fiat stuff! I just about throw up thinking about it. It was unbelievable the stuff that went to the dump. Thousands of new in the tube BMW Fiat Andrew lada posters. Boxes and boxes of carburetors. I could go on and on. Oh I guess I already did!
Short version...no, no Fiat hood rounders. I have a nice set of new chromodora Fiat NIB wheel centre caps.
Here is a few of the fiat shop tools that somehow made it in with my BMW stuff.
Cheers
Al

Thanks for the insight Markos.
Good hunting!
I poked around for quite awhile on line to find what I thought was an isetta reference. i doubt I could ever find my source again but typically I am less right than others. Ha!
