<VV> Telescoping Columns Revisited: What they're NOT worth

[Larry Shapiro]

I don't agree at all.
In every Corvair I have ever driven for a long period of time,I have 
installed a telescopic.
I am tall,and it is a must for me.

One of those non sold units was mine..and it IS worth more than I am asking.
Sometimes people beg me to find a nice one,and they are hard to find.
I will buy everyone I can find at the prices some of you think they are only 
worth :)
