Hurst Hatches !!??
That's a good one!
I seem to recall you changed back to the first design , right?
I just saw an NOS set of second design H/H go for $700 on Ebay and JOPARTS has a set he's put up for auction a couple times. I suspect his reserve is more like $1200 or so given prices on his other auctions.
I've heard Metro is stiffer than Soffseal. I just put a set of door w/s on and I liiked them. I think they were Soffseal. I'll check and post if they were Metro.
