WOW!!! If it was a radiator overflow jug for an Olds A Body I'd be all over it like a flea circus on a passing dog. In fact I'd even let you know you were getting shortchanged. But,,,,,this is only a washer jar.......
I'm not bashing the NOS part, it's just that everyone nowadays seems to believe that NOS parts are worth more just because they are NOS. I'm glad I dont have to build a 1972 Cutlass using only high priced NOS parts or it would probably cost upwards of $205,000.00 just for the parts.
I know this is dated (GM Parts Manual for 1972)
1970-72 f85 WW Washer Jar (plastic)
Group: 10.154
Part number: 404915
Retail Price: $4.35
By comparison, Fusicks sells the washer jar for 24.50 today's money. I bought one and the product is actually spot on. Somewhere out there is a buyer who MUST have NOS no matter what the cost - good luck!
