Well, I often get very good deals off eBay and craigslist.  My Palstar R30CC
was around $400, IIRC.  And I just picked up a complete 1958 392 Chrysler
hemi for $800 off craigslist.  They can go as much as $2,000.  Sometimes
it's *very* good!

I have to wonder just what the Buzz Aldrin connection was?  Any thoughts?

Here's a link, but it doesn't really say *why* they made that.  Weird...
