Title: NOS rim blow
Post by: tobkob on March 12, 2021, 12:21:31 PM

Hi guys,
 I have someone wanting to buy my NOS rim blow steering wheel and I need some opinions on how much to price it if I decide to sell it. It is a C9AZ-3800-B5A.
Thanks

There's one on ebay for $1500 with slight damage.
An NOS 70 from Stillwell is $1100.
Others trading in the 700 range.
Perhaps the repops have lowered the price?

I have an early teak one from when the switch was glued in by the manufacturer that I paid $462 for and an NOS switch in it's cardboard tube for $122.50.
I have most of the desiccated switch removed which is really tough to do without causing any marks.
I'm fussy and have yet to scratch even the hidden area underneath the switch, but now I've hit a really well glued area that won't simply pick out.
The wheel has no cracks or scratches and nice mylar, but until the switch remains can be successfully removed that holds back its value.
I'd hate to think of how a wheel restoration place would just gouge it out just to get the wheel back out the door.
