    A seller on e bay found 3 NOS (new old stock) Mopar oilers in his stash of automotive parts from the 50's and 60's. I had never seen one before, and here he had 3. After losing the first two auctions I knew I had to bid hard if I wanted one. Success!

    Here it is, carefully cleaned and sitting in it's new home in my Mopar corner of the garage.

    Nice addition to your collection. What did you have to pay?

    My all-time record. $220. My prior 'high' was $133 each for two lead top Veedol cans (very rare as well). One of the previous Mopar oilers was bid to $293. I consider myself 'lucky'. :winner_first_h4h:
