I saw all four at the auction. All four were 10-12 k cars IMO. There was an 87 that did not meet reserve on Thursday. It bid to I think 24K. It was a VERY nice GN that had the repro aluminum wheels. BTW it was pretty cool to see GNX 547!
You can also remove some material from the mounting surface to reduce the amount they stick out. Usually need to do some minor grinding/finishing to get a good fit anyway. A little time consuming but it can be done.
Thanks for the support guys. Just spoke with my daughter and she said she received an email informing her that she made the top 10 but was not the one drawn to win the saddle. There were over 1700 entries! She asked me to tell everyone she appreciated their votes and that getting in the top 10...
I do not normally post this sort of thing but.....My daughter called and asked if I could round up some support for a Saddle Contest she has entered. The link is below. It should be the first photo titled MY BEST FRIEND "Chessie K." She has been chasing her "Horse Dream" since she was 8 years...
