help asked for webers on ebay
hi all
i asked you for some advice last week about the carbs i put on ebay, you told me not to stop auction. i am glad i took your advice, they have
gone to a guy in sweden for a kings ransom. allegedly off a 1950s racing alfa. thanks again.

Nice one, just make sure they are tracked all the way during shipping....

Old Webers must be quite sought after. I noticed a couple of days ago that a pair of 42 DCOEs with a load of missing bits sold for £260 on ebay. Not
quite as good a haul as the OPs though!

Sometimes ebay can still give you a pleasent surpise! I sold an old set of direct to head throttle bodies before which as they were badged Rover and
not complete I didn't expect much till they sold for over £700. I think they actually came of a Lotus engine so may have again been needed for
an authentic build or something. They also went to Europe.

If they were Exige throttle bodies then you made a killing as they aren't particularly great according to Dave Walker.
