Heck, so what if it was miss-listed and had a wrong picture.

If I did not already have a pair of #6s, this one would at least get a minimum bid.

eBay completed item 140343668364

See, there are all kinds of serviceable Bedrocks out there for under $20.

Leave no rock unturned, especially a Bedrock...

I haven't resto'ed a plane in probably a year now.
Lack of time and interest.
Last count was close to a 100 around here somewhere. :o

Only ten or less have been put back in service that I have kept.
Sold several more that I redone.

Terrible to not have any spare time to devote to what you really like to do.

Went and looked. That's the big 608 :eek:

It was listed as a 608, but one of the questions asked how long and the answer was 18 inches. One of the pictures shows it is a 606. Another picture looks to be of a #5.

There is a reason why it is good to ask questions before bidding. Still, a 606 would be good for the low minimum bid.

Aha....18".

I just glanced at it. Just saw the 608 listing and it's a flat top.

Not paying attention tonight. :o:D

Same here, it took me a while to see the listing was a little squirrely.

That may have been the reason for no takers, but sometimes, it is worth taking a chance if you have dug through the errors.
