Brad,
Not my experence with "concours" judging. AMCO was/is after market supplied
'accesories'.
Period, yes - factory original, no. My car, Ole Gray, has AMCO trim rims
that were installed by the dealer BUT were not 'acceptable' by the judges.
I also have a new (out of the original box) AMCO grill guard for it but
removed it for judging as I knew it would also be a point loser. I left the
trim rims on because where they clamp to the rim caused rust spots where
they scratched the paint. It was leave them on and lose points or repaint
my rims. Since the rims are still in the original factory paint and what
you see is perfect I choose to leave them as is.
AMCO wingwings. There was a "NOS" set on ebay about two weeks ago. If I
remember correctly they went for about 65-70 dollars. Yes, I agree that
Josh is thinking a little high on them. If he wants $200 he better be
prepared on re-listing them many, many times before he settles for high
bidder.
