good points.  And, is this car a Varitone?  If so, you need that trim.

  Happy Sunday folks!

  =20

  I have a haggling question. A neighbor found a 1957 ZB at a nearby =
junkyard and told me about it.  I went down there and checked it out.  =
It was a total rust bucket with few salvageable items on it.  But, I =
could redo the steering wheels (there are three in the car, for whatever =
reason) and the tachometer gadgets.  So, what should I pay? According to =
my neighbor, this guy thinks he found a gold mine (nope), and I am a =

are un-restored steering wheels and tachometer gadgets worth?

  Thanks and best,
