Grips
We have a winner Rustyspoke66 is going to let me borrow some grip wells and will get a free set. Also if larmo63 has already started to cast them and he sends me the casts he will get a free set. Drawing to production hopefully will take only about 4 weeks more or less.

cost
Cost is still up in the air and will depend on alot of things like tooling cost, degree of accuracy and the fact that these need to be made as a set from two different molds to get the horn button, is that correct. I see alot of repop grips going in the $65 range some for more. I guess I would like as you would a pair of new wooden rims--be nice enough for a serious collector but not cheap enough everyone wants to put them on there Huffy's. I guess the target price would be somewhere between $50 and $70 if I can get the quality that good. Let me know what you think, but do it nicely.

I sent the grips off today USPS priority. As far as pricing goes, the prices on Ebay are high. You can buy the same grips through Memory Lane for a fraction of the price. For instance the jeweled coke bottle grips are 75.00 and up on Ebay, the same grips through ML are 30.00 and anybody can call them up and buy them. Hope this helps to see what the actual market is.
