Title: Strong stem, rare?
Post by: vwfish on September 21, 2010, 11:53 AM

Is this a rare stem or just junk? is it worth putting a bit of effort into it and restoring it?

i've had a black one and a chrome one, and they are really well made, and look the nuts...very very rare too, however, dont command much money, so if your looking to add value to it by restoring it, then your wasting your time,

that said, if your looking to have a nice rare stem, then who knows, it depends on your motives really...

i rate them, i did however sell both , and replace them with tufnecks.

OK so the general consensus is rare and good but worth very little. Not a problem. I'm not in this for the money and having a good part restored is worth the time to me. Rare is just an added bonus. :)

Sorry not for sale and I just got a clamp from ebay. I'll post a pic when it arrives if you'd post a pic of yours.
