Now I'm curious. I may have to dig my springs out to see if they have the number stamped on them.

Nobody bid on the springs - $99 might have been too high of an asking price.

It may be another example of the power repro's have ( new and pretty ) I often see real original parts never bid on because to many people see repro's on Corvettes and think there correct because they don't know the design that a original part looks like.
I buy many parts that are rare because of that and try to show them here. To many people go by the part number being sold and think their getting original NOS parts. What's great about this forum is that many knowledgeable people can now post pictures they know are real parts and it's design to help other understand .
