It's been sitting there for the last few days at that same price. I don't know if there's a reserve, but I'm expecting there to be a bidding war on the last day.

Not anymore. I threw in a few bids and brought it up to where it is now, but I don't want it that bad since it's outdated technology and in my eyes is only good for a restoration, or somebody who REALLY wants one.

I agree that it is outdated tech.  Jim's use of LED strips glued to the frontside of the insets of the hood proved that.  Far superior lighting in all ways.

But, I still have one of those trouble lights on Big Blue.  However, in my defense it was already there.  I just changed out the bulb to an LED.

Yeah, I agree, wouldn’t mind having one for originality, but too many LEDs at cheaper prices

SOLD! $127.

No, I didn't buy it. No way I would pay that much for old technology.

Two or three people had a small bidding war with it, so that undoubtedly led to the high price.
