Rear Sway Bar Retainer Plate

Would anyone value originality so much that they would use this part?

Yes, but some guys are into only original parts; reproductions just won't do. So, here's an original part. In fact, I don't question for a second that this is an absolutely, positively genuine original part.

If they want original parts bad enough to buy this one, then I need to get into the used Corvette parts business.
In fact, Rusty Eddie should be a millionaire if that's the case.

I could make an exact repro in about 10 minutes for about 50 cents

But are you going to reproduce it with the rusted out pits in tact! I think not!!!!!!
