Announcements!!

Mid Year Sale Event!!  Twice a year I list all my original items out at my lowest opening bid.  This is that week!  If you are interested in anything I have, you will not get from me at a lower price.  This is a great time to pick up a few items no question about it.

1.  I do combine shipping unless otherwise noted.  I do whatever I can to offset the USPS crazy shipping rates...


2.  Follow me at my new Facebook page at SemperFi Jeep Restorations.  I post often on upcoming auctions and early preview pics of auction items.

3.  If you are looking for a complete frame, donor tub panels or motors, let me know.  I'm going to finally market out some larger items I normally don't sell.  Send me a message for what you might be needing.

Hello to all and thanks for checking out my auctions this week.  It's my responsibility to provide you with the most information possible about the items I'm listing.  It is your responsibility to make sure this item is the one you need for your project or restoration.  So please do your research and make sure it's what you need.  We all know that Bubba had a knack for mix-matching old jeep parts so all items are sold as is and non returnable.  If you're looking for a specific item or part, please let me know and I'll see what I have on the shelf or out in the jeep bone yard.  I'll do my best to get it listed next time around.

You are looking at an original F Marked Front Fender Battery Strap that I pulled off a 1942 GPW.   I haven't offered one of these up in probably 5 plus years so figured I'd get one cleaned up and see how it goes... While I won't call this a rare item, no question these originals are quite hard to come by.  When it comes to these things it will not get much cleaner than this.  It is solid all the way around and considering what you normally come across, I would have no problems putting it on any kind of project including a show rig.  As you know these things are prone for heavy damage, severe pitting or missing all together.  Other than a some minor dings or scrapes here and there, this one is as good as it gets and has years of life left on it.  No question it will mount up and work as designed. .  The F Mark is outstanding and will not get much better.  Again a show quality original...   Winning bidder should be pleased with the purchase and what you see here is what you will get in your mail box.  These little attention to detail items are what sets your restoration above others...  Plus if you are putting together a catalog of your restoration it's nice having these original F marked items documented and photographed for future reference.  Item was cleaned, media blasted, polished by hand and primed for protection.  Priced a tick higher than I normally sell for due to the overall show quality condition of the strap and the simple fact they are hard to come by.  If it sells great!  If not I will use it myself.  This is the only F Marked Battery Strap I have to offer up so if you need one now or in the future, might be a great time to pick up a show quality original.  Again this is a really solid original and will certainly add some value to your rig.

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE ASK ME BEFORE YOU PLACE A BID.   Domestic shipping is estimated out at $10.00 and since I do not know where this will end up, if there is a large difference on the S/H, I will simply issue the winning bidder some type of refund via paypal.   Overseas buyers can expect to pay more for obvious reasons and please note I will not change final customs amount.  Your final bid is the declared value so please do not ask me to lower the customs declared value.  It is what it is and I just won't do it.  Also note I do not make a profit on S/H but do make enough to cover the cost of packing things correctly and the simple fact I have to drive a long way into town to mail this stuff out.  So I gladly combine items as long as they fit in the same box.  Anything I can do to help on costs I do.  I only accept paypal or other forms of online payments.  It's quick it's painless and the only way I do business.  Payment must be received within 5 days from the close of auction and items will ship within 3 days of that.  No exceptions and no excuses.  If your not serious about the item, please do not waste our time.  I've been buying and selling on Ebay since 1999 and my feedback is PERFECT so bid with confidence.  Thanks for looking, good luck and Semper Fi to my fellow Marines!
