Bob,

Those are 30-31s, which I thought were more plentiful than the 28-29s. You have
any 28-29s that are nice you want to sell?

Nope don't have any 28-29's. I just wonder why I see them going for so much on
Ebay when you find them at the swap meets in the .25 - 1.00 dollar boxes of junk.

Yes.

Ebay is a strange thing. A couple weeks ago a small Evinrude prop and rubber cone sold for almost $70. I bought the identical items last week for $1.50 at the national antique outboard meet. Wish I could get some of the prices I see people paying for parts on ebay.:D

Many folks don't get to swap meets and have to get parts however they can. Yep, it's a big stretch for me as well but at least they still have what appears to be good original bolts, nuts, etc. That is more difficult than the clamps unless you get lucky.
