Folks,
I believe I just witnessed an original Lucas battery suitable for a TR6
go
for over $1,100 in an auction on eBay. I suppose it is dry charged so
it may
last a few years once charged, but WHY? If anyone can answer that
question I
have an original tar top Lucas, never filled, suitable for the small
Triumphs
ready for auction.

Nowadays, it wouldn't surprise me to find out it was a bit of a con as
Jack hinted at. Regardless, it reminds me of the short-lived hysteria
on eBay several years ago over NOS and even USED Lucas sealed beam
headlamp bulbs. If only I could have gotten in on some of THAT
action.... ;-)
